Should we blame an old timey basic webpage for its lack of complexity or should we blame a modern browser for not accommodating the web in its most simple form?


We can walk and chew gum? Also, how much complexity do you think is needed to fix this by the webpage?


It would be up to the browser to render HTML sensibly. Use a browser that can.


There is a specification that says how it should be rendered. I definitely don't want every browser to decide how to render my webpage, that would just make development so much harder and complex.
