Actually, they all have a doctype of <!doctype HTML> (html5) but it is located after the template text that dreamweaver put in for it's template use. I've used dreamweaver templates on all my sites and never had an issue... I've removed and readded the menu in case I screwed up the xml file somehow, but nada.
Here's the head info if this helps:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />
