Same Code Different Page Speed Response

Sitepoint Members,
When I use the code below in wordpress page speed shows no errors. When I have the same code without wordpress and as an html file, I get a ‘Specify a character set’ error.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd”><html xml:lang=“en” lang=“en” xmlns=“http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”><head><meta http-equiv=“Content-Type” content=“text/html; charset=UTF-8” /><title>www</title><link rel=“stylesheet” href=“/a.css” type=“text/css” media=“screen,projection,tv” /><link rel=“shortcut icon” href=“/favicon.ico” />
<meta name=“description” content=“www” />
<meta name=“keywords” content=“www” />
</head>

Any idea why?

Thanks,

Chris

I would ignore it. That code looks fine to me.

Yeah I’m starting to think it’s a problem with Page Speed.

Thanks Ralph !
