Hi
For my google maps, I have to use the following doctype:
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
This means that my page does not validate anymore.
Is there a way to use this doctype AND validate the page at the same
time?
Thank you
Nicolaas

It is no big deal that it does not validate if no trouble is
being experienced. I know, you don't like it though!

You could try to create a DTD which adds the VML elements and attributes to
XHTML (or use an existing, if you can find one). But that would require a
different public identifier, probably forcing the browser into quirks
mode - that's probably a price you don't wanna pay...
You may also try to use a schema based validator, which is namespace aware -
DTD base validation is pretty much useless, when multiple namespaces are
used. Can't say, if that actually works without an example though...
