is this right?

this code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr><td>stuff</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

validates correctly, yet is missing a closing </td> in the table...

is this supposed to happen?

thanks.
