What's NOT wrong with it? For one thing, it seems to have
been written on a Mac for a Mac, closed </a> tags that aren't
opened, lots of bad nesting... it's just poorly written HTML
all around.
Amaya generates a fairly comprehesive list of errors.
The funny thing is that even though Amaya catalogs all these
errors, it still manages to render it as the author apparently
intended (no table overlaps, as Arachne displays)
