        HTML recentTweets = new HTML(
            "<body>"+
            "<div style='color: #ffffff; background-color: #010101'>"+

    To add to what Javier Badia wrote, your best chance of making web pages that work in all popular browsers is to (1) use validators to make sure that your HTML and CSS adhere to standards, and (2) Understand which bits of the standard make certain browsers cranky.

    There are many validators. I favor Marc Gueury’s HTML Validator plugin for Firefox because it validates every page brought up without you having to ask it to. In the lower right corner of the browser window it puts a green checkbox or a red X right where it’ll catch your eye. Having it “always on” makes it pretty much painless. Also, it validates offline, so there’s no need to submit your page to an external server. Depending upon your needs, there may be other HTML validators that will suit you as well or better.

    I won’t recommend a CSS validator because I haven’t found the good one yet.
