Well almost....

This works in every site except one. I have one site that uses a skin that was developed 3-4 years ago by another company. It has the following conditional declaration of:

 

<!--[if IE]><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"><![endif]-->

Adding my XML file does not override this. I can't figure out where this is coming from.

Generally, this is caused by skins that use HTML4 for the doctype. Switching to XHTML 1.0 Transitional or something newer should resolve it.

Instructions for setting the doctype: http://www.dnnsoftware.com/wiki/page/...
