When the document is online, however, if your server does not declare an encoding for that resource, and the document does not either, then the validator will not know what the encoding is. >1) the validator says tehre is no doctype, and I am not aware of any discrepancy in document type detection between direct input and by URI methods. Please provide a working test case (the one listed in the URL is not working) and re-open this bug if you can find any.
