Obviously. But that isn't what I advised. I said:

I didn't say to validate HTML with an XHTML validator; I said to validate,
and also to write your pages in XHTML if you can. Naturally any decent
validator will use the doctype to validate appropriately; it will validate
HTML as HTML and XHTML as XHTML. (Indeed, using a validator will force you
to *have* a doctype in the first place.) m.
