First step, run the affected page through
The W3C Markup Validation Service. It will find any mismatched tags, improper usage, etc. All of which could affect proper display.
Many of the errors it will return might be for strict sake, but it will find actual table/layout/etc errors as well. For example:
Quote:
# Error Line 450 column 7: end tag for "tr" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.
</table>
|
Quote:
Error Line 469 column 4: end tag for "td" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.
</tr>
|
Quote:
# Error Line 477 column 32: invalid comment declaration: found name character outside comment but inside comment declaration.
<!-- End of Ride of the Month --->

Quote:
# Error Line 771 column 7: end tag for "td" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.
</div>
✉
# Info Line 588 column 0: start tag was here.
<td>
# Error Line 771 column 7: end tag for "tr" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.
</div>
✉
# Info Line 584 column 0: start tag was here.
<tr>
# Error Line 771 column 7: end tag for "table" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.
</div>
✉
# Info Line 583 column 0: start tag was here.
<table border=0 cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" width=100% valign="top">
✉
# Error Line 2468 column 4: end tag for element "td" which is not open.
</td>
✉
# Error Line 2469 column 7: end tag for element "table" which is not open.
</table>

Those are just a few of the more pressing ones I'd focus on first. Ideally, you'd like to pass the validator and be W3C XHTML Compliant.
My money, however, is on this one:
Quote:
Error Line 607 column 8: end tag for element "script" which is not open.
</script>
