: Folks, could you please look at this page:
:
: http://www.around-the-world.com/Asia/indochina2.htm
:
: In IE8 & Opera 9.5.1, the page seems to resolve fine.
:
: However, on Firefox 3.0.6, the big block of text under the central image
: does not appear.
:
: Any idea why this happens and what can be done to fix this?
:
: Thanks
:
 
Jeezuz- this page was created with FP2003 and there are 47 bloomin' errors!
Is there any quick (i.e. automated, for us bozos) to fix this or is doing a
manual fix line by line the only way to salvation?
 
The first two errors can be repaired by replacing:
<style fprolloverstyle> with <style type="text/css">

The next 2 errors can only be corrected by removing the shared borders and
the theme.
The errors in the <body> tag can only be corrected with CSS - an essential
for standards compliant web sites, and compliance with standards is a first
step to making pages look the same in all modern browsers.

Errors in links regarding entities can be remedied by adding amp; to the &
character.
for example: <a href="page.asp?par=1&amp;target=new"> (if it looks like
an & here, it should read
page.asp?p a r = 1 & a m p ; t a r get = new" without the spaces).

Other errors are badly nested HTML.

Thanks Ron - much appreciated.



My code is full of errors, too, but I have no idea how to fix with CSS. I did the tutorial, but it didn't help.
