Browser Support DescriptionsElements are supported by essentially all current browsers unless a list of browsers is given in square brackets after the description. If such a list is present, then only the listed browsers support the element. The following 2- letter notation is used to describe these browsers:
IE Internet Explorer
NN Netscape Navigator
OP Opera
LY Lynx
WT WebTV
... followed by a browser version number. This may then by followed by a '+' sign if the element is also supported by subsequent versions of that browser
For example:
IE4+ Supported by Internet
Explorer 4 and greater. NN4 Supported by Navigator 4,
but not by Navigator 6.

NOTE on Lynx Browser Support.
Lynx is a text-mode browser that does not render inline images, and that can generally only display text using one font (with, in some cases, reverse video, boldface and underlining). Thus many inline text-formatting styles are not possible with Lynx. If you want pages to work with lynx, you want to avoid inclusion, character-like (except br) and special markup elements, and restrict yourself to only simple physical/logical elements (e.g., em, strong). You will also want to avoid table elements, and framesets.
SIMPLIFIED ELEMENT CONTENT RULES FOR INLINE MARKUP
Inclusion Elements If they can take content (many, like img, cannot), they take content appropriate to their context (i.e., text or inline markup if they are themselves inline, block markup if they are a block)
Character-like & Meta- Information
Generally allowed inside any non-empty block or inline element that can appear inside the
body (see also preceding page).
Netscape Layer Elements Can contain almost any inline element or any element that can be placed inside the body
element (see preceding page) -- they cannot appear in the document head.
Physical/Logical Text Markup Can contain text or any of the other inline or special markup elements described above Hypertext Anchors Like physical or logical inline text markup, but cannot contain additional anchor elements. Special Markup Can contain text or almost any block or inline element, or any element that can be placed
inside the body (see front cover)
