Depends on how you coded your HTML.
If you use CSS or inline styles then use HTML4 doctype
If you use <font> tags use HTML3.2 doctype.
These can be inserted using a code snippet:
Change to Code view.
Place the cursor at the top of the page before <html>
Press CTRL+ENTER
Choose the code from the dropdown menu presented.
For HTML4.01 Transitional use
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3c.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd">

Note: In my opinion it is more important to have a page that works in many
browsers, than a page that validates against w3c recommendations. It is
possible to build a valid page that will not function in some browsers.

Thanks for the excellent information. But...what if I used a combination of styles and font tags?
