<!DOCTYPE>
Explanation
The !DOCTYPE tag specifies the type of HTML document/XHTML documant. In HTML document, it is no problem not to describe the system identifier (the part to indicate the URL where the DTD is stored). However, the
Internet Explorer 5 for Mac may alter the interpretation whether to describe the system identifier (in HTML 4.01 Strict).
