Probably because all your changes are invalid HTML. Fix that first

Also, you should avoid using spaces in the URL.

Use © instead of the Copyright symbol. As Nibbler said: your edits are not standards-compliant (none of them is - in fact your edits are a mess in terms of validity), so it's not surprising at all that your page doesn't validate.
The browsers are left with invalid HTML and they try to interpret it as good as they can, but since your instructions are invalid it's more or less up to the browsers how to display your pages. You're forcing IE into quirks mode, that's for sure.
