You need to change the quotes around your doctype stuff. Notice how they slant in and out? That's a special type of quote (probably created an an escape sequence), that doesn't work for quoting attributes.
Write over it with a regular ".
If you copied and pasted your HTML from a word processor, that could cause the problem. Word Processors love to auto-change quotes to special characters. It's much better practice to type your HTML up in a simple text editor (a-la Notepad, Notepad++, or Gedit) or some kind of programming IDE (Dreamweaver, Quanta, etc). That would prevent problems like this.

When I do code I use Notepad, Notepad++ or Wordpad. I've tried it in Word when I first started doing web design, and I had the same problem.
If you need to download Notepad++ here's the link.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/notepad-plus/
When you download Notepad++, you'll see how it really can help you out with your code, rather it's XHTML, PHP, Pearl, Java, or a very large number of others.
Hope this helps.
