Nope, that probably won't work in NS 6. It's Netscape's problem with the 
DTD, evolt.org has an article on Netscape 6 breaking tables and the article 
offers a link to a version of the 4.01 DTD that /will/ work.

But, Martin, for this fix to work, you have to have a DTD. I noticed you 
didn't have one. So, get a dtd at the top of the HTML doc and then run it 
through the validator at http://validator.w3.org/ (I think is the correct 
url, if not, follow the links from http://www.w3c.org/).
