Try running the page through the W3C Validator. You'll learn that the page has numerous problems. For example, right at the start the <title> appears before the <head> tag. The very first <script> tag is malformed. At line 63 the validator complains about a closing </a> tag without a corresponding opening <a> tag. Given that the offending element is embedded inside a block of JavaScript I'd say that's a pretty strong indication that the page is malformed. Let's see, what else. Well, there's a <form> embedded in a table at line 136. That's not legal. There are lots of closing </font> tags without a corresponding opening <font> tag. Etcetera. The author of that page either needs to spend some time reading a good book on HTML or switch to a better HTML authoring tool. _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
