I just looked at the home page of the site you gave above. It is
written as html 4.01 transitional. I find it has 59 errors at the W3C
validator. I would first get the pages to validate before considering
cosmetic page changes. Some of the errors such as lack of alt cause no
problems. Many other errors do not seem to be fatal, but one always
wonders what might happen on other browsers. There are a lot of
required quotes missing. The table tags are really a mess full of
errors. If you need help in what some of the errors mean, someone here
likely can answer you. A page such as this is not unusual. Many just
write code and change it until it works on their browser or browsers
without ever validating the code.
