I am having trouble getting a page to view in netsape 4.77 .
I have tested the page in 2 different html validators that both show no errors.[nbsp][nbsp]If anyone can see what I have done wrong I would really appreciate the assistance.[nbsp][nbsp]Here is the suspect url.[nbsp][nbsp]It is supposed to be a satire article.

The problem seems to be in the table tags near the top...

Notice the <TR><TR> together with no <TD>s in between and then notice the closing </TR> without an opening <TR> after it.

Fixing that area up may just fix it.[nbsp][nbsp]At least we hope :)

What HTML validators are you using? I suggest you ditch them both and get one that works!

The CSE HTML Validator is very good, and they have a free &quot;Lite&quot; version that would have picked this up http://www.htmlvalidator.com/lite/

As a guess I would say that 9 out of 10 &quot;My page looks OK in IE, but won't load in Netscape&quot; problems are down to errors with table tags. IE does a lot of double guessing to try to render a page even if it's full of errors, while Netscape is less tolerant.

Think of it as Netscape helping by pointing out that you've made a mistake somewhere . . .

I like the good old W3 validator:

That would have done the trick!
