Details

Some elements of this page, e.g. Teacher Assistant name
and phone number, list of exercises, are not displayed.
This is weird because the page is pretty simple.
The bug happens in 9.8 and in 9.6
All of the page renders if I chang doctype from 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Draft//EN">
to
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
according to comments in bug 86273, the document type is invalid.

There are in all total 6 invalid comment instances on the page.
When you correct all 6 of them using the following template,
the problems reported here go away.

The author should also eliminate the invalid DOCTYPE line to be
sure.
