It is correct per spec. But FireFox renders it badly.

Probably better to put it in english on the ones we don't get.

I would suggest:
1) We ask them if they can do it, and if so please fix it.
2) Those that can't at all, we can try to do, put up for a review, and
have them approve it.
3) Those that can do parts of it, we can try to do the rest, and again
put them up for review.
4) We don't actually commit anything until the translator in question
has approved whatever we have on the web at that time.

Seems reasonable?
