No DTD means it's quirks mode in _every_ browser on earth.

The voice-family hack is extremely unreliable, and should not be used.

If compensation between quirks modes in IE/win and Netscape(fall back
for Mozzy), then a '* html' hack will do the trick, like so:
#svmp_vert ul a {/*other rules*/; width: 156px;}
* html #svmp_vert ul a {width: 140px;}
Write complete styles to begin with, and compensate for IE/win (and also
IE/Mac I'm afraid).
This will work as long as there _is_ a 'quirks mode' in IE/win (forever,
I guess), regardless of version. The '* html' hack will not work in IE7+
'standard compliant' mode.
