Details

When one DIV tag is embedded within another, if the parent DIV contains a table
and the child declared within a cell of that table, should this DIV contain
another table, the cells of the latter table render incorrectly.

It would appear that each <td> contained within any <tr> after the first losses
its relationship with the previous <tr>, effecting the sizing etc of any
preceding <tr>.

See: http://www.freeloader.com/firefox_issue.htm

The problem arises due to the use of style="position:absolute;” by the child DIV.

This code has been tested with IE 6, Opera 7.5 and Safari 1.2.4 and renders
correctly, (latest versions of NN and Mozilla suffer the same problem).
