Details

In my April 26th Win32 nightly build, the second test paragraph on this page is rendered incorrectly. The </A> end tag seems to be ignored when it has a line break in it: </a > (This kind of thing is allowed, isn't it? Anyway, all current browsers including Nav 4.x do allow it so Mozilla should too.)
