<h5>Our Horses</h5>

The beginning of the layout for the left side menu is, again, the same. Interestingly enough, Old Time Fox Trotters also uses Equine Web Design's .lightbackground class to define the left menu table cell, yet contradicts this by also adding a (conflicting) background color to the table cell with the addition of bgcolor="#FFFFE1".

Why? Because Caprine Designs either 1.) did not, or 2.) could not alter the properties of Equine Web Design's layout to suit its purposes without additional HTML markup when using DreamWeaver.

The additional code inserted by Caprine Designs also shows there was no reason to use the .lightbackground style class, except that the code already happened to be in the HTML taken from Equine Web Design's web site.

Following <div id="left"> Old Time Fox Trotters uses <h5> heading tags throughout the left menu, just as found in Equine Web Design's HTML.

After using identical paragraph style <p class="linebr">, another "made up" class name used by Equine Web Design to space between blocks of menu items, OldTimeFoxTrotter's dee signer commits her next HTML faux pas by not removing <abbr="facsimile machine">fax</abbr> from the code it misappropriated. Caprine Designs' DreamWeaver version mangles the original code, instead using Old Time Fox Trotters telephone number where a fax number is indicated by the code.

Caprine Designs appears utterly clueless as to how or why the <abbr="facsimile machine"> code would be used in the Old Time Foxtrotters left menu in the manner it has. In the context used, its existence is both incorrect and unnecessary. It does, however, faithfully adhere the format it has taken from Equine Web Design.
