Re: xhtml table attributes



below is the justification my organization uses and they exlained the use of
transitional this way:
"Getting the average <my org> Web site to validate with XHTML strict,
though, with all of the pervasive technologies being used for Web
Development at <my org> (Dreamweaver, Frontpage 2003, Visual Studio,
Homesite, Notepad, etc.) - and the different skill sets of the developers
themselves (some are SMEs rather than Web Devs, some are graphic designers,
etc.) is still probably not a reasonable goal. Compliance with XHTML
Transitional gives enough flexibility for the bulk of our users."

wiki has this to say:

supports XHTML in Internet Explorer 9 (Trident version 5.0). Prior versions
can render XHTML documents authored with HTML compatibility principles and
served with a text/html MIME-type.

also this:
supports HTML 4.01, CSS Level 1, XML 1.0, and DOM Level 1, with minor
implementation gaps.
