Do you mean is it possible? And what tags are you having trouble with? I haven't had a lot of problems with getting pages to validate strict really. It depends what you're doing. The other big thing with strict is all the qualitative things like semantic markup, proper use of mark-up (i.e. no layout tables), accessility and all that.

I don't need help with anything specific. It just looks to me as the w3 is tring to make the internet compleatly text based. Or at least stop making pages stretch.

You mean you want to add tags that aren't available back into the strict DTD? What's the point in trying to do that, if you need to add tags back into the DTD from superceded versions you're entirely missing the point of what the strict DTD is for.
If this is the case you should use an older DTD, or learn to use semantic markup and CSS.

Nothing ever behaves the way I want it to. I usually have to add a bunch of unnecessary stuff to get it to behave a little closer to the ideal layout. I think the days of 80% width are long gone. I want it to go exactly where I need it (example width from left = 100px width from right = 300px)

What about:
selector {display: block;
position: relative;
left: 100px;
margin-right: 300px;
}
Give that a go, that was off the top of my head so have no clue whether it's going to work!

Sorry to double-post, but this would be easier:
selector {display: block;
margin: 0 300px 0 100px;
}

How the?!?! Your the 2nd person to do that to me in the past week! I'm confused! I though margin was the spaceing from the sides of the object.
