Hello everyone,

I've got a problem with a page which has a table in it.   When I first designed this site, it 
validated okay with W3C's validators and was reasonably well accepted by Bobby.  All 
pages looked as they ought to with the exception of Mozilla1.4.

I recently upgraded my own home PC to Windows XP and use IE6 with it.   Now pages 
with tables aren't right - the table is extended past the page resulting in a scrollbar.

One of the affected pages is www.raworths.co.uk/directors.html    Other people have 
looked at it and there is no problem, but a couple of people have seen the scrollbar too.   
Netscape doesn't have this problem.  I'm up to date with service packs and updates, so 
I don't think its anything to do with that.

Obviously I don't want potential customers to view the site and see a scrollbar.   Am I 
okay just using <table> instead of <table width="100%">?

Denise
