No, not really. Look here:

79:<table border=0 cellspacing=20>
80:<tr><th valign=top>    <<<<<< Yes, HERE !!
81:<DIV align=left>

What does the book say about <TH> ?

Mine says this:
Quote: <<TH
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

Description

Creates a row or column heading in a table. The element is similar to the TD
element but emphasizes the text in the cell to distinguish it from text in
TD cells. The end tag is optional.

>> Endquote

IE 3.0 doesn't diferentiate, IE 4.0 does. Why does </FONT> work in NS 4.03?
Guess it's a bug. Opera and IE 4 do the right thing.
