Hi there HTML Tidy People

I have a simple question re. Tidy (I'm using the Mac BBEdit plugin) ...

my code is HTML 4.0, but Tidy makes it into 3.2. Can someone help me?

Here is an example:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
 <TITLE>Testing 123</TITLE>
 <META NAME="generator" CONTENT="BBEdit 5.0">
</HEAD>
<BODY>
blah blah blah
</BODY>
</HTML>

Thank you
Malcolm Pateman
