I liked HTML 2.0 + tables. It did everything it had to and it worked well.
In fact it still does.

For the effect to be visible, you need to have a style that applies an underline
(or whatever) for a 'hover' action. I'd presume that Mozilla is doing this all
the time, but it only ever becomes visible in cases like this.
I have deliberately added a </a> after the word 'this' in the first paragraph to
make it clear that the effect does indeed end when a </a> is found.

The effect can also be seen on the bottom half of this page this page (not a
POV page):

Hmm... What's the main difference between my example and that? I don't
understand.

I think it's the hover thingie in the CSS that's doing it as much as
anything else.

You should really look at the specs (even if Thorsten for some
strange reasons doesn't like them).
There are elements wich need a closing tag (<div> for example), elements
where it is optional (<td>, <li>), ones where it isn't allowed (<img>,
<br>).

It is. But its meaning is not the one you think it is.

With "a:hover { text-decoration: underline ; color: #ff0000 }"
you say, that you want the content of the element "a" to be underlined if
the mouse is hovering above it.
Thats EXACTLY what Mozilla does.
Hint: The pseudo-class :hover is NOT restricted to links.

So this means that it's all the other browsers which are broken because
they don't do what the CSS is telling them to do?-)

How do you come to that conclusion?
Povray doesn't implement subsurface scattering - does that mean that it's
"broken"?
There is no need to implement everything in every browser -
but if a web author uses a specific feature he should be aware of the
fact that thare could be a browser that actually implements this feature
to its full extend.
