No, the current draft of HTML 4.0 does *NOT* allow the TYPE attribute with most elements. Instead, you are advised to use a META element to indicate the default style sheet language (see below). >Here's an example where it specifies the style sheet language: > <P type="text/css" style="font-size: 12pt; color: fuschia">Aren't > style sheets wonderful? No, according to the HTML 4.0 draft [1], TYPE is not a valid attribute for the P element. Really? take a look at http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-html40/present/styles.html#adef-style a couple paragraphs down from that, we see this example, *in the current version* <P type="text/css" style="font-size: 12pt; color: fuschia">Aren't style sheets wonderful? So, you're either misreading the spec, or it's inconsitent with itself.
