this is my first page so i'm terribly lost on which doctype to use, i'm
hoping there's a basic type that doesn't require hours of research
i had been using,
<!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<!-- -->
<HTML>
but that stopped working and now can't seem to find one that works
it also started invoking the post - action, even when the validation is
returning false?? that is really weird
with different doc types it then asks for a coding reference?
its a pretty basic page, with a medium size form
http://job1data.com/phsvolunteer.htm
and this code seems to work fine in the page but the validator has it pegged
as an error, i was hoping to use jscript to avoid all the coding for dates
it seemed an easy way to build a larger select list
</SELECT>
year* <SELECT size=1 name="dobYYYY">
<script type="text/javascript">
d = new Date();
var year = d.getFullYear();
year = parseFloat(year);
for (i = year; i > (year - 80) ; i--) {
document.write("<OPTION> " + i);
}
</script>
</SELECT>
