My HTML display incorrectly ( in body, doctype missing)

Hi guys,
My vanilla forum display a bit weird.
In Internet explorer it runs in Quirk mode and the site looks terrible
I figured out that i need to add the doctype.
So i added it in the default.master.tpl.
Is it the correct place to add it in? as it doesn't show up on the site even though i already added.
The other issue i found is that the < title > element is located in the < body > element instead of the < head > element
Any comment on why it misplaced?
I've attached a screenshot from the inspector element if that would help.

It could be your theme, I notice you have disabled character encoding.
grep is your friend.
The files are probably cached by Smarty so you need to clear the Smarty cache and then check again whether your doctype is shown.
What is the address of your website? Can we see it or is it on your local PC?
There was an error rendering this rich post.
thanks, please kindly take a look

even if i changed to other theme. it still the same
i looked into my config-defaults.php
this line
$Configuration['Database']['CharacterEncoding'] = 'utf8';
i understand that it is enabled.
it is generally good to do validation

You need to save the files without BOM (this a common mistake with notepad)
grep is your friend.
Right to the point.
Just to be useful for later viewers. x00 comment fixed my issue
I searched through the file and found out that my locale file 'captured.php' was saved in UTF-8 mode
When i changed it to UTF-8 without BOM, it works perfectly.
Thanks million times
