It seems like no matter what i do, switching between HTML and code view removes the <!doctype> tag from my content. I've recorded a video that demonstrates this behavior using your online demos.

Is there a way to correct this behavior?
Thanks!

Hi Mark,
I tried to reproduce the problem, but to no avail. Please examine this screencast and let me know if I am missing something important.
Could you please test if you are able to reproduce the same behavior on your end using this online demo and get back to me with the exact steps to reproduce, so that I could be able to investigate it on my end?
If this is happening only with isolated scenario, please prvide some details about the specific configuration of the RadEditor control that leads to the described behavior.

Ok, so i figured out in your demo page that <!doctype html> is stripped out, but <!DOCTYPE html> is NOT stripped out. I've confirmed our application also works as long as DOCTYPE is capitalized. Do you know what that would be since HTML tags are case-insensitive? Anything we can do to prevent?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Hi Mark,
Thank you for getting back. to me.
The RadEditor control supports only valid XHTML content and as per to validation requirements, the DOCTYPE declaration should be always upper case.
I am unable to suggest a possible approach to let users add lower case DOCTYPE.
More details about this matter is discussed in this Stackoverflow forum thread.

Thanks for the information. I actually had found and read that same post already. There seems to be a lot of ambiguity about the correct casing requirements for that tag. But it does appear to be the consensus that using capital doesn't ever hurt. Now that I know what is happening I believe that I can correct for this using a custom filter.
I've written custom filters before and this seems to be pretty straight forward. For anyone interested the filter code would look similar to this:

Hi Mark,
Thank you for sharing this custom filter with the Telerik community.
I believe that it will be really useful to other developers, encountered the same behavior.
