The page *does* render properly on Galeon (Mozilla/Netscape 6 based)

It is interesting to note that by running www.arin.net through the W3C's
HTML validator (http://validator.w3.org/) it comes up with numerous
problems.  The first one was no DTD or DOCTYPE being specified.  The rest
are commenting problems, missing ALT tags, and invalid attributes.

Also it appears the website was created in fireworks/dreamwaver.  I wonder
how much that costs.  Why not use vi or notepad or the like?
