I am SO SORRY, and in the future I promise to wait at least a week before posting my problems to see if I can figure it out in the meantime. I fixed this by saving the file in TextWrangler instead of TextEdit, and now it interprets the HTML properly. If anyone knows *why* this fixes the problem, I would still appreciate your insight, but it appears that I have fixed the main issue for now.
