If I put META in the body of my HTML document, neither Netscape nor IE choke (they seem quite complacent about it, as a matter of fact). So, what exactly _does_ break when I put META inside the BODY? If 99% of HTML is viewed through these two browsers, who cares if I put META in the "wrong" place? I know SGML or HTML parsers will complain, but what does it break in the real world? E.g., what problems does it cause? I'm not an SGML expert, so please be patient if I've asked an obvious question. Thanks, -Doug -- J.
