Yes. KEEPING it will cause you no end of problems. You should do a bit
of research on the difference between 'quirks mode' and 'standards
mode' [1]. To make a long story short, in IE 6 and under, having
anything in the source before the doctype will cause IE to (among
other weird behaviour) use the IE 5 style box model.
