Hi

I've inherited an ASP script, which doesn't work.
There is some Javascript validation which has been working, but now doesn't kick in, despite no changes to the actual page.

I'm trying to eliminate what it could be.
The first thing is this top line, can anyone tell me what it is?

<script>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC &quot;-//SoftQuad Software//DTD HoTMetaL PRO 6.0::19990601::extensions to HTML 4.0//EN&quot; &quot;hmpro6.dtd&quot;>
</script>

That should cause a JavaScript error. The !Doctype tag is a meta tag that describes the document. It shouldn't be placed between script tags. Try removing the script tags and see if that helps your problem. I'd need to see more of the code to begin guessing at any other issues.
