What Is A Doctype? Which One Do I Use?

According to HTML standards, each HTML document begins with a DOCTYPE declaration that specifies which version of HTML the document uses.

I have actually written my own desktop HTML IDE for Windows (it’s called Less Than Slash) with the intention of deploying it for use in web development training. If has built-in reference features, and will autocomplete code by parsing the DTD you specify in the file. That is to say, the program doesn’t know anything about HTML until after it parses the HTML DTD you specified. This should give you some idea of my skill level with HTML.
