OK, but the analytics code is placed by the web hosting service, not me. BTW, do you know of a free hosting that let's you have your own 404 error?
I gave doctype a shot, it didn't cause shifts in my code!!! Still testing, but it's a good thing cause my site will have less errors.
OHH, THAT, i don't follow them either, in most web pages before the html is the <DOCTYPE>, i don't use that, that defines the HTML version that the site is using, i just run all my websites in "quirks" mode.
Helping out matt-1308 with some dreamweaver, i wonder why people don't learn HTML the real way, i did and look how my awesome website came to be, no dreamweaver used.
