My content is almost ready and I'm putting the finishing touches on my site.

A book I have says that a web page should have this format:

!DOCTYPE
HTML
HEAD
TITLE..../TITLE
.
.
/HEAD
BODY
.
.
.
/BODY
/HTML

Yet when I use Word 98 to convert to HTML, it does not put a !DOCTYPE.
Does the

HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"

do the same thing.

Also, I sincerely hope that HTML tags are not case sensitive.

Thank you.
Now I only have 368 things to fret about.
