By process of elimination, I discovered what crashes NN on your page.
Examine the table below:

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<p style="border-style: solid; border-width: 1; padding: 5">text text text</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

When the closing paragraph tag is omitted, NN4.6 crashes every time. A
unique discovery, you should report this one as a bug report to Netscape.

When the table is omitted, it doesn't matter whether the closing paragraph
tag is missing (no crashes).

You have this p-style tag in your page, and it seems you just need to close it!

Hope this helps,
Jim Allen
