Dimitri and other GISLIST subscribers,
One of our web developers just discovered the problem with the USGS map page at =
http://infotrek.er.usgs.gov/files/nawqa/beyondgeo_map.htm
The problem is that there is malformed HTML on their web page.
There is a <TABLE> with no "supporting" <TR>, </TR>, <TD>, </TD>, and (most =
importantly) </TABLE> HTML tags. The <TABLE> tag needs to be removed. =
Internet Explorer has a problem with pages that have <TABLE> tags without =
supporting tags.
The USGS is taking care of the problem within their page as we speak.
Dimitri, I have always respected your opinions in the past. You voice them =
strongly with much conviction. But, with all due respect, I disagree strongly =
with your model/cost arguments against the BeyondGeo and like services. When I =
get time down the road I'll get you my thoughts.
Thanks,
Jeff.
