gollark: Totally different.
gollark: Nope!
gollark: Um, anyway, advice:- use CSS- `<i>` is deprecated for some reason so use `<em>`- favor CSS padding/margin instead of `<br>`- indent sanely- please make sure your thing is actually parseable and doesn't contain random opening tags
gollark: I see.
gollark: Also your indentation is really weird, are you using an IDE?
