Browse to the site: The page is filled with javascript and tables. For some reason everything is spread out accross the page and looks nothing like NAV 4.72 or IE 5.

OK, here is the problem. Mozilla ignores the specified tabe cell widths and produces a 100% table to fit all the text in the second COLSPAN row in there. You don't even need a colspan, leave it away and you will have the problem with just the first column. Giving absolute width to <table> solves problem. changing summary to adapt to true problem. <TABLE> <TR> <TD WIDTH=100>a</TD> <TD WIDTH=100>b</TD> <TD WIDTH=100>c</TD> </TR> <TR><TD colspan=3> Really long text...[snip].... </TD></TR> </TABLE>
Summary: Large amount of whitespace between columns. → absolute table cell width ignored, to fit text in

Sebastian@SSpaeth.de - your testcase looks the same to me in M14, 20000324 (latest build), NS 4.72 and IE 4.0. Could you have another look at this? Gerv
oops, /me blushes red I somehow simplified it one step too far, sorry. And I don't have the time right now to redo my work.

Right, I think I've got it. The following testcase works differently in NS 4.5 to Moz 20000419 under W95. Gerv

The url looks ok to me and the 2nd attach does also (except when the viewport is extremely wide).
