w3c valid (no warnings) css; http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/v...er/printer.css

Now we'll take the same page, and change nothing but the doc type. Changing it from xhtml 1.0 strict, to html 4.01 strict.

Page is displayed EXACTLY the same. I tested in FF 2.0x and Safari on OSX, and IE 6.0x on Windows XP.

I could pull out hundreds more designs and show you the same thing over and over. Instead, I showed an example on my end. Let's see one on your end.

Ok, first of all... I was talking about the differences between strict and transitional (and also included is loose) used in doctypes. Not about the differences between xhtml and html 4.

Secondly, your html 4 infact does not validate as you have left in the close tags ( /> ) items from your xhtml document. Those aren't required nor valid in html.
