The text above uses tabs to align data in columns. Except it doesn't
align the data (I'm departing from the book here...). The (draft) HTML3
specification uses an ID="name" attribute to create each tab stop, and
the source-text is marked up accordingly. But in Netscape 2.0 the table
will not portray itself clearly because Netscape 2.0 only uses HTML2.
(And what happened in Netscape 3.0? - it used the "final" HTML
3.2 specification, which dropped the proposed idea of tabs...
illustrating the golden rule that one should only use existing
mark-up that works equally in all current browsers.
