Otherwise it's "visible with any browser" with my candidates
for small surprises (Netscape 3.x and Lynx 2.8.5). But the
validator.w3.org doesn't like it, please add a Doctype and a
charset:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>
The DOCTYPE as first line, and the charset within the <head>:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type"
CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
After doing this I get the following errors:
6: <style text/css> => <style type="text/css">
87: <p valign=top alig=ceter> => <p align=center>
92: <td bgcolor=#??????> => <td bgcolor="#??????">

Having done this validator.w3.org claims (*):
"This Page Is Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional!"
Bye, Frank
*: these claims are sometimes incorrect, and I didn't
validate the CSS, because I couldn't fix it
