Hmm, mea culpa. I see that it is indeed there. You could probably
lose some of the empty lines following it, but I've ragged on you
enough today.
I apologise for claiming your sig was missing the delimiter.
Say, would you be offended if I asked you to wrap your lines a bit
earlier than 80? :-) 65-72 seem to be widely used wrap columns.

I hope it works out for you, and again, good luck with the professor.
He sounds like more of an asshole than I am. I would guess that if
your site looks good in MSIE, you're good to go.
I don't know if you explored Eric's page, but apparently ESPN's
website is using CSS instead of tables for layout these days (among
other sites).
I don't know how standards compliant it is, but I always liked the
look of www.xiph.org, though some browsers do a poor job rendering it.
