Have you tried connecting to the https version of the URL?
Maybe the site has a problem redirecting to https and I don't
notice that because I've got Firefox configured to always use
https.

In general, though, a connection error indicates that there is
something wrong with certificates somewhere.

Why would older HTML code lead to a *connection* error?
Have you compiled Firefox to reject HTML4?

For you.  I've not heard of anyone else having a problem.

The code is not deprecated at all.  Is HTML4 deprecated?
And really, do you want your browser to fail on old sites,
on any site that hasn't been updated in the last ten years?
