With the text set large it overflows over the rh column.
This happens reproduceably

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to http://news.bbc.co.uk . enlarge the font using ^+.

2.go to another bbc page. might show problem
3.go back to news.bbc.co.uk & observe overwrite.

Actual Results:  See snapshot @ http://berty.dyndns.org/bbc.png

Please don't d/l the image unless you actually _need_ to it's my "pay for
traffic" cable line. 

Expected Results:  Displayed the text inside the table box.

I see that there isn't a DOCTYPE definition line on the page so I suppose this
is more the BBC's fault than Mozilla's.

You might care to try to persuade them to put the DTD line in.

I'm reporting this because BBC is a popular site, and usually like to have a
high quality to the products.
