I sort of getting the finishing touches for my site and I put up my meta tags but one thing I see on sites that I dont understand is their doctypes?

Something that looks like this for example:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

That goes before the head.

So what does that do and how do I pick which one I need?
