13.5.3 Tables As Implemented In Netscape 1.1

Use these tags with caution, they may not be visible by browsers other than Netscape, or older versions of Netscape. Even if they are visible, they may not be rendered as expected.

Tables are not standard HTML - HTML 3.2 includes a subset of the table markup that has been widely deployed by Netscape. The experimental HTML Tables specification (RFC1942) has been ratified as an IETF proposed standard BUT IS NOT A STANDARD.
