Well, the behavior can be tested by anyone and the code is available on the web, so couldn't you answer this question yourself? It seems to me that it validates adherence to a given DTD, and the way in which it knows which DTD to use is for one to be provided in the DOCTYPE statement. What is the confusion here, or do you really enjoy simply splitting hairs pointlessly? -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@idyllmtn.com> http://www.kynn.com/ Chief Technologist, Idyll Mountain Internet http://www.idyllmtn.com/ Catch the web accessibility meme! http://aware.hwg.org/
