Do you have control over what doctype is used? If you want to remain as
Traditional (probably ok as you now describe the page as "old code"
instead of a new effort), at least use a complete one.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
http://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/valid-dtd-list.html
With the mix you have, you'll have little success getting browsers to
agree on how to display it. Have you seen these pages yet?
