1.)
Look at the border-collapse section:
This isn't supportet but I think it is cool, as it can save a lot of work for
thos web developers.

2.)
Look at the table-layout section:
table-layout: fixed workes fine, but I think it would be better to cut the
content of the cells, like IE does.

[Alfonso Martinez]

border-collapse is supported in the latest builds (get one from here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/ and test it for your self).
I think that there might be some issues left, but now it mostly works fine.

And the second report can be achieved by setting overflow hidden on the cells
(anyway this doesn't mean that maybe this isn't a bug in mozilla, I don't know
the CSS rec by heart):

td {
overflow:hidden;
}

Border-collapse is now supported, and the clipping of cells in fixed table
layout is incorrect.
