How to Change Firefox to Ignore XHTML
The HTML "doctype" tag at the top of your HTML file determines the type of encoding in your Web pages. You use this doctype to set Firefox to ignore the XHTML character set and use only the standard HTML character set and tags. The doctype can be placed on any of your HTML files, but it must be placed at the top of your code.
