Hi,

I have moved my old VS 2005 project to VS 2012. Some things work and some I am having a problem with (I posted a question about it in the ASP.NET forum on UT).

But now I am looking at the main page of the project and see that it still has HTML 4.0 set, as following:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" >
So I am thinking of changing the above to:
<!DOCTYPE html>
Could such a change break the project? Especially if the customer will be running it in the browser that does not support HTML5? (Although most customers run this project in IE9 or later which I believe support HTML5)

TIA for any suggestions.
