Quirks mode and strict mode in browsers

Quirks mode and strict mode

Further information can be found atJukka K. Korpela’s Quirks Mode features page.
Browser comparison: which doctype triggers which mode?
IE 5 Windows and Netscape 4: Doctype switching not possible; permanently locked in quirks mode.
IE 5 Mac: No official support page, but Eric Meyer has summarized the differences.
Mozilla: DOCTYPEs and list of quirks.
Safari: No official support page, but it largely follows Mozilla.
Quirks mode and strict mode are the two ’modes’ modern browsers can use to interpret your CSS. This page gives a short overview of the reasons for and the differences between these two modes.
