Opera displays similar to Mozilla, Validator doesn´t validate, on Opera asp
error 0113 was seen somewhere (script times out, administer server).

One of the table cells has a very long string of text in it all inside a <nobr>
tag (search for "Books about parties" in the source).  This forces the page to
be wide.

Given that markup, our rendering is correct.  I have no idea what IE is doing or
even whether IE gets the same markup on this page....
