The code Al quoted was just header information describing the software used to write the web page. And Oh, wow, it's Microsoft Word. Somebody used Word to write a document and then used Save As Web Page to make Wordified HTML out of it.
Now Word makes Horrible HTML with capital Hs all around. But it's usually serviceable. This particular example isn't particularly serviceable because Word has decided that everything on the page is a kind of VML. Meaning that it's spitting out a seldom-seen cousin of HTML that's meant to describe vector graphics. I'm not certain about Mozilla's support for VML, but I'm guessing it's not very good.
I suspect there's "some setting" in the Word source document that encourages it to write VML when it really wanted HTML. Something that tells it the document is all graphical information. It will probably do a better job of making serviceable HTML if you can find a way to turn that off. We're way out of my Word League at this point, so better hints aren't forthcoming from me.
There are many HTML editing applications available. Some are free. I'd encourage the MOTF webmistress to look into her options. Anybody have a good recommendation? Personally I use vi. Ain't gonna recommend that.
