Yes, it did that for me, too, and (surprisingly) in both IE and Firefox.
I don't know specifically what's wrong but the markup is archaic and in
some cases invalid by modern standards. There is no DTD, putting browsers
in "Quirks".
The best way to fix it is to use a strict doctype, update the page to
currently-acceptable markup under that doctype, and then validate the
result at the w3c.
