title: > IE + XML + XSL + XHTML + W3C = Get In! date: 2004-04-23 14:07 status: published tags: Moo­quack­woof­tweet­meow 4, Moo­quack­woof­tweet­meow 4 Weblog, web standards, Internet Explorer, XML, XSL, XHTML, The Twaddle, Gecko, Opera, the Web


<p>
As a prelude to some major back-end renovation I'm planning for The Twaddle, I decided to see if I could get Internet Explorer 6 to display this XSL-ified weblog nicely, not accounting for IE-unsupported CSS (which is already taken care of at The Twaddle). Previously, IE displayed the DOCTYPE declaration as plain text at the top of the page; using strategic HTML commenting, I've managed to prevent it from doing so. </p>
<p>
Actually, I bet simply removing the DOCTYPE declaration wouldn't affect either Gecko or IE's rendering of the page, as I think XML kicks both of them into standards mode anyway. </p>
<p>
The next step is to try this with some of The Twaddle. And I'd probably best check Opera's effort, too. </p>
