What's broken in OmniWeb?

[Pawlo Prawdiuk]

However I have found just because a cerain browser supports a feature like this that is not neccesarily what the standard documentation says should happen.

Everything I find on the subject treats the PRE command only for text, it also says you can use other HTML commands internal to the PRE command but does not say how  those elemets will be treated: IE your graphics will not neccesarily stay together, unless the web browser people interperted the documentations in a way that it happens like that. And there is alot of copy cats in the world. 
I do not belive there is a way to force graphics which sit side by side to stay the way you want. 
I know it will make for a slower download but you could make it all one graphic.

HTML 2.0 Spec Verbatum
 Preformatted Text: PRE 

The PRE  element  represents a  character  cell block of text and is suitable for text that has been formatted for a monospaced font. 

The PRE  tag   may  be used with the optional WIDTH attribute. The WIDTH attribute specifies the maximum number of characters for a line and allows the HTML  user agent  to select a suitable font and indentation. 

Within preformatted text: 

* Line breaks within the text are rendered as a move to the beginning of the next line.  (15)  
*  Anchor  elements and phrase  markup   may  be used.  (16)  
* Elements that define paragraph formatting (headings, address, etc.)  must  not be used.  (17)  
* The horizontal tab  character  ( code position  9 in the  HTML document   character  set)  must  be interpreted as the smallest positive nonzero number of spaces which will leave the number of characters so far on the line as a multiple of 8. Documents  should  not contain tab characters, as they are not supported consistently. 

Example of use: 


<PRE>
Line 1.
       Line 2 is to the right of line 1.     <a href="abc">abc</a>
       Line 3 aligns with line 2.            <a href="def">def</a>
</PRE>

BTW Reading HTML3.0 Spec it said the same thing.
