Why is my page displayed differently on Mac vs. PC browsers?

External Since: Jul 27, 2005 Posts: 27

I have a very simple page, which shows 3 Quicktime movies in a table. I
think I'm using just standard simple HTML. In Netscape or Safari on a Mac,
they look fine. In Internet Explorer on a PC, the bottom of the movies are
cut off (size issues with the table cells). Could someone look at the html
here

http://server.drmichaellevin.org/worm_supplement.html

and tell me why this is different on different platforms?

If you don't want to go to the URL, the code is this:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body>
<table width="75%" border="1">
<tr><td>Control</td><td>PCPA</td><td>Reserpine</td></tr>
<tr>
<td><EMBED SRC="Supplement1.mov" WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=300 AUTOPLAY=true
CONTROLLER=true LOOP=true PLUGINSPAGE=http://www.apple.com/quicktime/"></td>
<td><EMBED SRC="Supplement2.mov" WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=300 AUTOPLAY=true
CONTROLLER=true LOOP=true PLUGINSPAGE=http://www.apple.com/quicktime/"></td>
<td><EMBED SRC="Supplement3.mov" WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=300 AUTOPLAY=true
CONTROLLER=true LOOP=true PLUGINSPAGE=http://www.apple.com/quicktime/"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Thanks in advance!
