Comment 1

[Frederic Bezies]

Code of central frame is not valid.

When I enter "http://home.attbi.com/~mschordan/flyingtires/news/index.html" in
w3c validator, I have a bunch of errors, like :

"Line 76, column 34:  there is no attribute "COLOR"  (explain...).

  <table align=right border=0 color=black>"

See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/tables.html#edef-TABLE for your table
problem.

Resolving this bug as invalid ?

Comment 2

[Michael Jonker]

the code of the style-sheet is invalid as well. small changes in the css-code
will produce the right result.
Like changing line 19 in http://home.attbi.com/~mschordan/flyingtires/ftsite.css
from:
    TR { background: 880000; }
to:
    TR { background-color: 880000; }

will show the right background-color.

Has been explained as non-standard HTML code of the page, color attribute used
improperly.
