[ale] [OT] Weird <META> Tag Problem

[James Sumners]

When I inspect the HTML of your document with the WebKit Web
Inspector, this is what I see:

"<meta name="viewport" content="width=320″
/&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt;&lt;form action=" process.php"=""
method="post">"

That is, you have HTML encoded part of your HTML. This means the
mobile browser is not interpreting the HTML correctly (actually it
isn't _able_ to interpret the HTML).

"All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts
pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it
is magnetic to the corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become
drunk on violence, a condition to which they are quickly addicted."
