Like I was saying.... IE is more error tolerant... you miss a table tag or
add an extra one and it will still render... but netscape will complain
like crazy... but all said and done netscape is more standards compliant
than IE anyday.

Also FYI IE uses jscript and not javascript.(Which is a TM of Sun
Microsystem and used under license by Netscape)
