The only thing invalid about your code is you made up your own <LT> tag.
(The validator certainly told you this--didn't you read its report?)
Replace it with a valid HTML tag. Don't worry about losing whatever it
is that you think the <LT> tag is contributing the the look of the page,
because it's contributing nothing. Since the browser doesn't know what
it is, it doesn't provide any special look for it.
