Why is it that SeaMonkey and Firefox do not display this webpage

Screenshots:

Same link with:

Opera Browser:

and of course Chrome & Chromium as the same.
There are 12 errors in the HTML, at least one of which involves a
stylesheet so it's possible that some browsers don't read that
stylesheet at all, and 128 errors in the CSS itself. For those
interested, these can be checked at http://validator.w3.org/ and
https://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
While it's not unusual for pages to contain a lot of errors against the
standards and still work in practice on most browsers, it shouldn't be
surprising that they might behave differently in some browsers.
That's not to say handling of erroneous pages couldn't or shouldn't be
improved - just that it's possibly the reason for the difference. From
Barry's responses it looks like the current development version has
improved handling of this case.

The background for the Brand appears a bit darker in my Firefox 36.0.1,
than my SeaMonkey 2.33 and Chromium 41.0.2272.76. I barely notice a
difference putting them side by side.
Is that the complaint?
From NoOp's screenshots, SeaMonkey and Firefox show the headers and
introductory text centred, there is no menu, and the "sort by" options
to the left of the table. Ephiphany and Opera show the headers and intro
left aligned, menu to the right of the header and the sort options above
the table. So a bit more than just a slightly different colour.
For what it's worth, I just tried that page in a few browsers on Windows
Vista:
- Internet Explorer 9.0: Header is completely screwed (logo image is
displayed without scaling and styling, menu is a bullet list of links).
Intro and table look similar to NoOp's screenshots from Ephiphany and
Opera.
- Chrome 41.0.2272.89: Looks similar to NoOp's screenshots from
Ephiphany and Opera.
- SeaMonkey 2.33: Headers and intro look similar to NoOp's screenshots
from Ephiphany and Opera, but the sort options and table look similar to
NoOp's screenshot from SeaMonkey.
So it seems to vary between browsers and even for the same browser on
different OSs...
Mark.
I see! Much ado about nothing again.
