    actually, you're partially correct. if you have used proper xhtml markup then generally it is still xhtml compatible. validators use the doctype to determine what version of markup it is.

    clients use the doctype as a flag for the render engine to properlly apply the schema.

    technically, yes, without the proper doctype it is not 'valid' xhtml...but if you followed the correct coding standard, then it is still xhtml.

    confusing, i know.
