RE: Articles system

You seem to have fixed it, at least for FF 1.5.0.5 on Gentoo.

Though there are 16 warnings according to the HTML Validator plug-in.

Some of them are pretty BS (imho) about "width" attribute for TD tag,
which, basically, every browser supports just fine, and is not going
away any time soon, afaict.

Not to mention that a page just won't look right if you can't dictate
column width, so it's kinda important to keep that bit there.

'Course, your CSS can can still come along and totally screw up your
tables, even the ones you SHOULD have for tabular data.  I'm dealing
with that issue today on an admin page that we weren't gonna bother
styling, until we found out just how screwy the CSS made it... Sigh.

But, really, an unescaped & in the page is almost always fixable.

And stray text inside the TR tag is almost always a programming error,
though I can't actually see what it's complaining about in my brief
look-through.

PS Yes, the long-scrolling article with ads like you have is WAY
better than that icky other one.
