[Chameleon] Can't make the rubberband work -- Help!

[Liz Godwin]

This issue was a while ago but I thought I would post anyway.

I recently noticed this with version 2.0, that my rubberband box disappeared 
when the DOCTYPE was set to strict. I was using Firefox.

DOCTYPES can be tricky, and they often throw off one's CSS and Javascript. 
Or Chameleon Samples ;-)
