Page setup order

Does it matter whether Doctype is after the Page line? At the moment, I
have my pages as so:

<%@ Page Language="VB" trace="false" debug="true" AutoEventWireup="true"
ContentType="text/html" ResponseEncoding="iso-8859-1" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="fts" TAgName="header"
src="..\includes\defaultHeaders.ascx" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="fts" TAgName="footer"
src="..\includes\defaultFooters.ascx" %>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Strict//EN">

I wanted to find out if this is the correct order or does it matter?

the page directives are read by asp.net and are not included in the output
html. the <doctype statement is html and only used by the browser

So it doesn't matter what order they are in?

No. Order shouldn't matter. I use a similar scheme.

By convention, I place the page directive at the top, and include
controls below.

VS.NET moves the control declarations before the page directive.
