Ah, that would explain a lot. Netscape 4 is extremely picky about
having a </table> for every <table>. If you don't, it will not
display the table at all.

Netscape 6 is a complete rewrite of Netscape 4, based on the
pseudo-open-source Mozilla project. You can't predict anything about
Netscape 4 by using Netscape 6.
And although a shrinking minority, Netscape 4 is still widely used.
The plus side is that if it displays correctly on NS 4 with all its
bugs, it will most likely display correctly on *anything*.
(Except MSIE on Macintosh, that's even worse...)
