There was a discussion of this on Project Cool's CSS mailing list and the
consensus seemed to be that the code isn't outside of the /html on purpose
(i.e. it doesn't need to be outside the HTML in order to work). Rather,
folks on the list suspect that it's included as a server side process on
all hosted pages, and since most of the hosted pages already have a /html,
the DIV appears after it.
What I'm confused about is the fact that browsers show it when it's after
the /html. I was under the impression (from when I first learned HTML) that
browsers stopped *reading* the file when they hit that code. Is this no
longer true? Was it ever true?
