Simple question. What would be the cost of no doctype at all? I know that <!DOCTYPE html> activate standards mode, but why not activating it too on just <html>. IE8b2 went all the way to go standard mode by default on html 5 "fake doctype" with potentially breaking many sites. Do we know if it would really create damages? And what would be the extent? -- Karl Dubost - W3C http://www.w3.org/QA/ Be Strict To Be Cool
