- Unfortunately, it probably is. The table uses HTML 3.0 tables (also
- known as "netscape tables". It passes 'html-check' with the
- html-3.dtd). These display fine on Netscape 1.1 and up. New versions
- of Mosaic seem to be able to display tables (as long as you enable
- that option), but have trouble with table elements that contain HTML
- markup (e.g. <B>keyword</B>). These elements display as empty
- elements in even new versions of Mosaic. On older versions of Mosaic,
- the table looks like the quoted portion above (and is somewhat
- unreadable).
-
- We've added a disclaimer to the top of the page warning about the
- possible browser problem. We've also added a "preformatted" version
- of the table that can be viewed by browsers that don't display tables
- correctly (reachable from the EiffelTerms.html page).
