Re: Netscape - again!

If you are going to write to the XHTML spec then you should comply closely=
=20
to it and validate your documents.  You omitted all the closing single tags=
=20
like <br /> or <img /> and you have uppercase tags in there which are=20
invalid XHTML as well as unclosed p and li tags.  There are also duplicate=
=20
align and valign attributes in some td tags and some attributes are not=20
quoted which is also invalid XHTML. You also use invalid attributes like=20
border in an a href tag and have one of those unclosed on line=20
37.   There's many more errors but the list is too long to go through=20
here.  My advice is that if you want to keep using deprecated attributes=20
and tags just stick to HTML 4.01 Transitional and validate all your=20
documents.  Invalid markup is more often than not the cause of rendering=20
problems in browsers.

Your main problem with this page might be that your first form tag is not=20
closed.  As much as I dislike Netscape I don't think it is at fault here.

HTH!
