The HTML !doctype tag is used for specifying which version of HTML the document is using. This is referred to as the document type declaration (DTD).
HTML 4.01 has 3 possible doctypes: HTML 4 Strict, HTML 4 Transitional, and HTML 4 Frameset. Every HTML document you create should have one of these three DTDs.
NOTE: The <!DOCTYPE> tag does not have an end tag!
This document type includes all HTML elements except those that have been deprecated, and those that appear in frameset documents.
