 * with <!DOCTYPE html>
    the pages don’t work when I open them from the main menu
   of the blog then if I do a refresh of the browser all works in the right way.
   pls do a try: in the main menu you’ll find “redazione” there you”ll see “around
   the world” click on it and it will be open a page without any map after refreshing
   the browser the map appear perfectly. Same thing in the homepage, There is a 
   palimpsest if you change the page and go back through the “home” of the menu 
   the palimpsest is completly empty of graphic and dates but after refreshing is
   perfect.
 * if I use: <! DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “- // W3C // DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional // EN”“
   [http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”&gt](http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”&gt);
   
   These pages work but the radio stops and restarts at each change of page

 * Please contact the developer of your theme – as commercial themes aren’t supported
   on these forums –

 * With something that can be answered by looking at the site – such as a CSS question,
   those often do get answered here. But something like this is more complicated
   and no one here has access to your theme or the backend of your site (nor can
   you give that to anyone here, sorry). Personally, I have no idea :(. Maybe someone
   will happen along who knows something about it.
 * Or you could consider hiring someone – [http://jobs.wordpress.net/](http://jobs.wordpress.net/)

 * Just noticed that this is also a duplicate topic of one you already had going–
   and that’s really not cool here – so please stick to your first one here:
