Invalid.  Width sets the width of the content area.  You still have 5 pixels of
padding along all four sides, making the line 11 pixels thick.  If you set
cellpadding="0" in the table, you'll get a one pixel line.
BTW, this design could be done much better and simpler by replacing the table
with two divs, putting a border-left on the div on the right.
