User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071128 Iceweasel/2.0.0.11 (Debian-2.0.0.11-1)

I have a page which has mostly a table in it, actually a list of
(Japanese) books that my wife wants to sell. Each tr is one book;
the various td's are title, author, publisher, etc.

I want to scratch out the rows about books which have already been
sold. I do this by changing the <tr> of such a book into <tr
style="text-decoration:line-through;">.

This works in FF only if the doctype is html 4.01 transitional. If I use a "strict" doctype, the "linethroughs" are not rendered (although they are rendered in IE6 and Opera).

The page is validated properly by W3C (both html and css validation) in the "transitional" and "strict" versions.
