The problem is that not everyone looks at it in the same resolution. If you
want the tables to look the same in different resolutions you need to use a
font that everyone will have and set the table/table cell widths to be right
for the minimum size that you expect people to browse at. That way if they
have a larger resolution than that you design for the tables will still go
to the size you specify. As Bill says, use pixels rather than percentage.

For the record they didn't line up for me in either  IE 5.01 or NS 4.7.
