Exactly. It is in a testing phase.

Are you aware that the partially the new guidelines suck? Are you into accessibility and discussions about this issue?

If not, I hope it will be sometime.

Who is talking about latest HTML 4.01 Strict? It can be HTML Transitional, Loose, XHTML Transitional or anything else your heart can wish. It just have to be properly marked up! VALID CODE!

Try to do programming with invalid code, and lets talk about functionality.

There for Invalid code is ok as long as it can be justified.

Can you be more specific? Can you provide an example here?

Are you serious? If yes, please start another thread, and we can discuss what is possible and what is not.
