Details

Using 11.23.98 build (XPViewer) on Win32 (Win98 & NT 4 checked), the table
structure does not render properly.

There's too much to describe verbally, but some of the details are:

* The "Departments" table column ends prematurely after "Small Business", and
with the remaining items (Retirement ---> Financial Forums) continued in a third
column, to the right of where they should be. (rather than continued as a single
list in the left-most column of the table)

* Much of the rest of the page is presented as a single table column (middle
row), and lacks the intended 3-column structure that the remainder of the page
is supposed to have.

Summary: ss:quicken.com root page's table is vertically elongated → ss: anchor markup between rows splits table
changed summary to reflect the root cause of the problem
the problem is markup between </tr><tr> in a table is causing the second row to
get jettisoned from the table.  Minimized test case below.  If you change <a> to
<x>, the problem goes away.

<table bgcolor=yellow>
  <tr>
    <td>
      cell 1
    </td>
  </tr>
  <a></a>
  <tr>
    <td>
      cell 2
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

Verified fixed on 1.12.99 Win32 and 1.13.99 Mac OS builds. (1.12.99 & 1.13.99

Specifically:

- The quicken.com page lays out correctly on both platforms
