I recall also using 1x1 transparent gif for advertising purposes but can't recall exactly why.
Also using curved transparent gif images to give a rounded corner effect on elements using table cells for the corners. Very tedious and also not supported by IE at the time, had to use some funky IE workaround. Now solved by border-radius.
Also using uppercase for all html elements <TABLE> <FONT> etc. I think it was part of XHTML(?) can't recall. We would also run all our pages through an XHTML validator to check for syntax issues.
Also using flash swf files to enable custom fonts. There was some really genius workarounds in those days to implement features we now take (somewhat) for granted.
