I think it is worse than that; my page puts IE in Quirks mode. I've used IE to save a copy of your original document and it saved it with that broken DTD. I only noticed this after you mentionned you're using a Strict Doctype :-( > Also, you were omitting the space before each slash. That was on purpose. It was to show that the line breaks at the <i> with or without the space in there. That technique could be used with long strings of characters like URIs that would break just before the "/" for example (or anywhere the author choose). I thought that was interesting.
