I'd tend to disagree with this approach.

It's been removed from more recent DTDs for a reason. If you want to do it, use a DTD that supports it (or create a custom one including the bits you require). Circumventing this with JavaScript seems to defeat the purpose a little bit.

This can be argued back and forth for a thousand years, so suffice to say it is largely a matter of opinion :)

No, I agree. I'd like to do it "the right way," so maybe I need to look into it more... Thanks for your thoughts.
