[thelist] dastardly html - theplacetogetstuff.com

[sfmalo]

Cayley -

Suggestions: I noticed from a quick scan that at least one of your <td>s has height="50" and width="!00%". Mixing pixel and percentage declarations can give Netscape the willies. Also I was originally taught HTML using a Netscape 4.x browser and remember that we pretty much left attributes out of the the <tr>s concentrating, rather, on the <td>s. And, lastly, we didn't declare a height for a table, only a width ... and yours also is mixing percentages with pixels.

You might try removing/changing the above and see what happens.(<8
