This brings up once again what a well behaved browser should do
when encountering "bonehead blunders" in HTML. I would like to
suggest that crashing and locking up is not good behavior. Given
the nature of the web any browser will encounter "bad HTML" that
does not conform to accepted standards.

What does Explorer or Netscape do something like this?

Crashing doesn't seem like an expedient procedure for Arachne
does it?
