then its not a testcase ;-) There must be a different problem.

Nope, its correct. the ad code embeds a table that is not closed. hence all 
contents afterwards is moved in front of the table. every browser does that. 

if you add the missing </table> after </script> it works in all browsers.

because the table in the external script isn't closed. you can verify this 
very easily:

My table top
<table><tr><td>table middle</td></tr>
My table bottom

All browsers render this fragment the same.
