Generally, ++ tobyink but we still disagree on more points than the limited number to which I'm inclined to create well-documented counters.
But your question/rhetorical question, "You think modern browsers don't support HTML 4.01?" is just the opposite of my intent. Of course they do... but when the cited browsers were "the latest and greatest" we saw an awful lot of utterly non-compliant markup because devs were pushing out code that satisfied a particular browser (only). Think, also, of how commonly we used to see "<table width = 347...>", with only an implicit "px" -- i.e. code relying, mistakenly, on sometimes inconsistent calculations by various browsers).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
