Which doctype do you use when coding? I always use transititional unless a client asks me to use one of the others.

How about you guys?

I'm usually using XHTML 1.1. The exception is when I'm coding with vB, in that case I use Transitional.

What exactly do you benefit when using Transitional as apposed to Strict?

I usually use strict - I find its the best way to get uniform appearance from all the browsers without having to resort to hacks *shudders*

Nothing in particular, I have just always used Transitional.

HTML 4.01 Strict. Not for quickies tough, I only make my own site strict, otherwise I don't really care.
