I need something to see how Safari is interpreting my code, and what it will do if I change my code in certain ways. And for extra credit, any guesses on why Safari is choking on www.concordcoalition.org?

  1. Safari errs on the side of strict adherence to the w3 conventions, so a website like the one you linked to, which has a lot of mistakes and unconventional elements, gives Safari problems.  

    It would probably do better on IE, as IE does it's own thing and is less strict with conventions.


  2. For once, you got several <style type="text/css" media="all"> elements in your head section, it would be better to simply import all of them in same round.

    You aslo have a <style> element in your body section, the style element is not allowed in the body section. See also: http://www.brugbart.com/References/6/#Se... - Embedded Styles

    You are also missing the required "Type" on your script elements, instead you seam to incorrectly use the language attribute, which doesn't exist.

    When dealing with JavaScript, you should use <script type="text/javascript"> along with the relevant closing tag </script>

    You are using all sorts of deprecated attributes, and you are even incorrectly using elements places they ain't allowed, an example would be your use of h1 elements inside a elements, and this dosn't make any sense. See also: http://www.brugbart.com/References/90/ - HTML H1 to H6 Tags
