I voted for strict.
If I am designing a new website, I use the strict DTD. By validating against strict DTD, I eliminate the use of any deprecated tags / attributes. This helps keep my code clean and easily maintainable.
If I am re designing a website that already is built in prior versions of HTML with or without DTDs, I use Transitional DTD because it reduces my work load of getting rid of deprectaed tags / attributes.
It would be a silly to use a transitional dtd in new websites to accomadate elemant that were deprecated in HTML 4.0 which was released in July 1997. You are outdating yourself by almost 6 Years !!
