Here's the polygon document with no dtd -- works in Mozilla 1.1. And here's the same document with a strict dtd -- works in Mac IE 5. It occurs to me that with the dtd-hacking that browsers do, there might be a dtd declaration that works for both Mac IE and Mozilla.http://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/usabilityUsabilityHumor/2003/03/07.html#a1377 (Untitled)- March 7, 2003 Way back in 19971998 I said HTML needs a clean 'client-side include' -- to let you include a bit of HTML from an external file.
