The doctype declaration would tell the browser which rendering mode to use for that document. Three separate rendering modes were generally available across browsers. **Full standards mode** renders pages according to the W3C web standards. **Quirks mode** renders pages in a non standards compliant way. **Almost standards mode** is close to full standards mode, but features support for a small number of quirks.
