What the hell is wrong with this page?

It's the same code generator operating in the rest of my LJ, but somehow the formatting's all fucked up on that page, but only in Mozilla. There's no big picture or long word that I can see, and the rest of the journal, including the
rest of the friends pages, the
recent entries, and
individual entries looks good.
It also works in IE for some reason
Can someone check the code and tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Ta.

Huh. Never mind. It clearly was a problem with someone's post because it's gone on to the next page now.

It's probably a result of bad HTML. Unlike IE, Mozilla is not as tolerant of poorly-written HTML.

IE also has an intolerant mode but you have to define the DOCTYPE header to do it. Otherwise it defaults to "lazy" mode.

Yes, thank you Dalton. My question was more of a case of
what was wrong with my HTML.

You didn't pose that question
In any case, I can't seem to find the problem. *shrug*

Mozilla on my box (Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041127 Firefox/1.0) has no trouble rendering the page. The whole LJ seems fine, in fact.

No it's better now. It was something in one of my friends' posts. But although I have some idea which post it is, I don't know why it messed up the page.

I've seen it happen on mine with an open table tag in one of my friend's posts.

Yeah, but there was no table that I could see. That was the confusing part.
*shrugs* I think I fixed the original problem though. (It was looking shit in IE before, and I didn't realise)

Those quizzes have an uncanny knack of having incredably poor html.. it's a right annoyance because I write my own blog software, and it's 100% W3C complient. Not after those damn quizzes though.
