When checking compatability with Netscape 4, it reported one error, saying that the tag <tbody> is not supported by Netscape Navigator 4.0.

The page looks ok when viewing the webpage with Navigator but I know how error free Yahoo likes the site.

Would Yahoo fail my submission on this?

Thanks,

Jon

As long as it displays fine in Netscape I don't think Yahoo would decline your site just for that error.

Regardless, you should probably fix that right away if you haven't already. It's the right thing to do, only takes a couple minutes, and you'll feel better afterwards.

1) Pick a standard (for instance: HTML3.2 is almost universally supported; HTML4.0 is not yet fully implemented except maybe in Mozilla which isn't in full release yet; Netscape 3.0x has adequate documentation and imitation support to be considered a standard; JavaScript 1.1 is pretty universally supported) and strictly code to that standard.

2) Pick a standard, and decorate with tags from later standards to taste, so long as you understand the semantics well enough to tell whether they degrade gracefully in browsers that do not support them.

TBODY itself is in the HTML3.2 standard and degrades absolutely gracefully in browsers that don't support it -- BUT it's not usefully supported by any browsers yet anyway (again, except Mozilla). I think some end-user HTML editors add it promiscuously. But I don't use it, and delete it en-passant.
