On a given web page, if I look at the source on the server, I see tags such as <A0>,<93>,<94>, etc., that I guess are extensions, etc. that are added beyond the simple HTML tags that I used to hand-code simple websites many years ago. ...and that these extensions are the source of a large number of formatting errors with different browers, and are also why web page authoring tools should be more useful now to hide details.

No answer but I see the same problem when an MSWORD document is saved to HTML format and later moved to a server.
There are commented "if" clauses, sample follows, which apparently are intended to be used by compatible - Microsoft - software running somewhere.
<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

</o:CustomDocumentProperties>
</xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>
<w:UseWord97LineBreakingRules/>
</w:Compatibility>
</w:WordDocument>
</xml><![endif]-->
The <o> and <w> tags appear elsewhere in the un-commented body. It all may be a question of XML being included in HTML which just might be in an RFC somewhere.
