Ok - since I needed an excuse to constructively procrastinate and actually
do some useful work rather than wasting time writing proposals that will
just score 1 point below the funding line - I have fixed the page.
The html is now so clean that I reckon I could render it by hand. If
Chrome still gets it wrong then it is just being dumb.
It would help if people checked their html carefully when adding to such
pages - basically everything after tutorial A7 was screwed up, mostly from
people cutting and pasting wrong from what I could and also not proof
reading the HTML.
Some examples of what was wrong:
Missing </a>
Lots of <td></td> - not encompassed by <tr>...</tr>
Misplaced </table>
Several <tr> without matching </tr>
People stuffing images of width > 100 pixels into cells specified as 100
pixel wide.
<center> tag with no </center>
<blockquote> without </blockquote>
etc etc.
It's amazing it ever rendered at all.
All the best
Ross
