Yes, but the HTML (and other stuff that may be within the document) is interpreted by the browser and that's my point - it's perfectly possible for a non-Microsoft web server such as Apache to serve up pages that are only compatible with IE6 (as an example), while it's equally possible for IIS (Microsoft's web server, for those wondering what we're talking about) to supply documents that are incompatible with IE in some way. Basically what I'm saying is that how well a browser works with a site has less to do with the web server supplying it and more to do with the design of the site itself.
