Depends on which version of HTML you want to validate against.  I like
XHTML myself, but that's because most of my web projects are personal
efforts, on which I can afford idealistic markup. (-: Try the HTML
4.01 doctype:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
 "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
