I just ran your page by the validator again, and it still says it can't
find the doctype. 

Errors found while checking this document as HTML 4.01 Transitional!
Result:   5 Errors, 5 warning(s) 


Maybe it is because of the blank line before it. Maybe it is because of
the single-quote marks in your doctype. Remove the blank line in the
resultant HTML and copy/use this (with double-quotes):

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
