I've heard from some members who use the Safari web browser that when
they look at my web page the bottom half of the page doesn't show up.

Here's my URL: http://www.geocities.com/seattlecfs/
The code is an ugly layout table with convoluted colspans and rowspans.
Can't say that I blame Safari for giving up. ;)

BTW, Safari is only showing what can been seen "above the fold", i.e.
what's in the viewport when the page first loads. Scroll down and it's
just a blank white page beyond that point. I don't know why, but I'm not
even going to try to debug your code.

How can I fix my page so that it will display properly in Safari?
Correcting the validation errors as others have suggested is hardly
worth the trouble. This really should be rewritten from the ground up.
Cleaning up the code could do wonders for browsers besides Safari, plus
maintenance should be much simpler.

IMO cleaning up the validation errors would enable the OP to learn more
about proper HTML and CSS.
But does he want to? "I'm stuck with the job of maintaining a web
page..."

Well, he *could* tell them he's just too tired to do it...

Not funny.

Subjective.
