He has one, but apparently it isn't correct somehow. I use these (copied
straight from the W3C site):

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">

or:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd">

(I suggest the "Transitional" one for the FAQ, and for web pages in
general. It's more in tune with the "Real World", where everything isn't
always as perfect as one might wish...)
