Description
The current doctype:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
gives a validation error with content type meta. I changed it from the one in Garland theme, and the page passed the validation test:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">Maybe xhtml 1.1 is too STRICT for Drupal?
btw: this is the BEST theme!

Marked http://drupal.org/node/195195 as a duplicate of this (at least it seems like it is...

Right now I am having trouble replicating the error. Stock Drupal seems to work fine, along with using the nodewords module. How are you getting that specific meta into your site?

Oh, and I am glad you like it. :)

To be honest, I don't think anyone should be using a 1.1 Strict doctype. I'm sure there's a good reason for it, but the memory of that escapes me...

My only reasoning is that it is my preference. It is easy enough to change to your liking though since this theme is meant to be used as a canvas. I just give you a few starting points.
