Comment:

 Something as large as this shouldn't be discussed via Trac. Take it up on
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Mailing_Lists#Hackers wp-hackers].

 Replying to [comment:12 benjaminhawkeslewis]:
 And sure enough, if we visit your
 [http://www.viper007bond.com/archives/2006/11/19/casino-royale/"
 penultimate post] we find it fails validation with two errors. If you were
 serving that page as application/xhtml+xml, so that Firefox used its XHTML
 parser rather than its tag soup parser, you’d see a yellow screen of death
 instead of your page because your tags are mismatched.

 A result of my stupidity / a plugin.
