Hello there

I see from your starter master page you use the doc type XHTML 1.0 Strict. Is this whay you recomend for such branding projects?

We have a company creating some designs for us that we will then re-create in Sharepoint 2010 (hence the reason for buying this book). My question is, should the people supplying us with code be using XHTML 1.0 Strict or can they use XHTML 1.0 Transitional or just HTML 5?

thanks
David

I recommend sticking with XHTML 1.0 Strict because its what Microsoft used to create their master pages. Other doctypes will work though. HTML5 has some gotcha's in SP2010 though, like in IE9 rendering mode (which you would typically want to use with HTML5) you will see that date pickers in dialog boxes won't work.

thanks for the info.
