HTML 4.01 over XHTML 1.0 Strict
My vote is for HTML 4.01 over XHTML 1.0 Strict. After spending a couple of years running XHTML 1.0 Strict pages on my site I'm convinced that it's a waste of time. The simple fact that the application/xhtml+xml MIME type isn't supported in Internet Explorer makes a mass implementation pointless. I'd much rather advocate a doctype that is uses a MIME type that is widely supported, i.e. HTML 4.01 over text/html.
