I have some nested<code>,<small>, and<sup> tags. Firefox does
exactly what I expected.

But Internet Explorer 7 renders them(*) as shown in this picture:

I don't *think* I've screwed up the nesting, and the page does
validate, but IE7 seems never to terminate the<code> and<sup> tags.

1. Have I done anything wrong, or is this an IE7 bug?

2. If it's a bug, is there any way around it?

3. If it's a bug in IE7, is it fixed in IE8?


Not sure if this is causing the problem but you're missing a greater than sign below:
