Unfortunately, the browsers aren't necessarily doing their part and
honoring the DTD (document type definition, aka doctype) /until/ NN6. That
version is /supposed/ to strictly interpret the DTD and render accordingly,
but for some weird reason, it will not honor the 4.01 Trans which is
messing up mouseovers and tables.

I propose that *possibly* that is by design Tamara.
Remember, the 'ol crudgemudgen Fuzzy keeps harping not to use the
transitional DTD because it *is* transitional.
*Possibly* Netscape has pulled a fast one on "us" and done a ~GOOD~ thing.
They may, just may, have actually gotten the jump on us, kids. And "we" are
simply being blind sided by it.
~possibly~
But no doubt,
Fuzzy.
