    DOC TYPE showing errors

    I am trying to validate the markup in my Actinic shop and I am unclear about one or two things. I think the default doc type is:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

    One of the errors that presents itself is the "space slash close tag" (<FOO />) which is associated with XHTML.

    I do understand that it may be impossible to validate everything in the catalog but reducing the errors will help.

    I have searched the forum but can only find discussion that is very old relating for example to v7 of Actinic. I am using v10.0.4.

    Given that the default doc type is as above - html 4.01 transitional - I'm wondering why the default base href shows 4 lines of code using the "space slash close tag". In order to validate this can I change these to the HTML closing tags without breaking the code, and is it essential for parts of these line to be in uppercase?
