Hi all,

I have been stumped trying to figure out a page display problem in NN (all
versions i think).  The page expands HORIZONTALLY, even though there is no
content, or pixel or attribute forcing the page to that width.  The page
diplays "properly" in IE.  The page is meant to display at a minimum width,
but also to be "stretchy" if someone has enough screen real-estate.

The URL is http://www.ragingbull.altavista.com/ipocenter/ipobulltv.shtml

My best guess is that there is either a problem with my using a combination
of table widths in percents and pixels (width= xx% and width=xx)

I've tried HTML tidy,  I've tried code validation and there doesn't seem to
be any missing table tags.

I've tried finding info at devedge on how NN handles mixed use of width
attributes, without real success.

I've looked at it a million times.  Maybe someone knows of a good resource
page for the above topics? or has conquered this problem before.

Any help would be much appreciated.
