I wrote
In addition to the development of standards, a wide variety of
additional extensions, restrictions, and modifications to HTML were
popularized by the competitive implementations of Netscape
Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer and documented in various
books and online guides.
I would be happy to include a reference to a "Tag Soup spec" if
I could find one that would be suitable for a references list
in an RFC. I'm uneasy about recommending one popular HTML book
over another, and can't find any stable reference to something
that would constitute an "official guide to Mozilla and/or MSIE
HTML tags". I thought about:
[MOZ] "HTML Tag Reference", Netscape, 1997; available at
<http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/htmlguid/index.htm>.
but couldn't find an MSIE equivalent.
Suggestions?
