You should validate your
You should validate your HTML, it's good practise.
HTML 4.01 (your doctype) doesn't need the trailing / slashes to close elements; either take them out or bump up your DTD to xHTML 1.0 strict.

Sorry, it's only empty tags
Sorry, it's only empty tags that don't need the closhing slash in Html 4.01
Example:
that's XHTML. For your HTML 4 DTD, you'd use:
Leave the head and body tags as they are 
It's only necessary to close the single empty tags, such as the meta tags, stylesheet links, and HTML content such as <br /> and <hr />, tags that don't by default have a closing tag eg <p></p>
