I've created a test case where a table cell will not be given the proper size
when a JavaScript tag shares the cell with a div with the overflow style set to
auto.  This is only a problem when the JavaScript uses the src attribute to load
a file.  Using a script inline in the html works fine, as does not setting the
div's overflow style. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
In the test case that'll follow, a table is created with the first column's
width set at 75%, the second 25%.  Within the left column there's a table with a
div with overflow style set to auto.  A JavaScript tag is also included in the
same table cell as the div.  The script's source is specified with the src
attribute.  The contents of the script are moot (an empty file is fine).
Actual Results:  
The left column of the main table takes up close to 100% of the available width.
 The right column is squished as small as possible.

Expected Results:  
The left column should take up 75% of the available width, and the right column
the remaining 25%.  This test case renders properly in IE.

Attachment: Testcase for the scenario

Look for the "problematic line below" comment.	Commenting or removing the line
will fix the problem.

The included script file foo.js is unimportant, just create an empty file with
that name, or include some other javascript source file.

I can reproduce the bug in Firefox 1.0.1 on Linux but not in
Mozilla 2005-03-07-05 trunk Linux.

Jeff, please try a recent trunk build and see if that fixes the problem:

The testcase functions properly with mozilla-win32-installer.exe 06-Mar-2005 and
firefox-1.0+.en-US.win32.installer.exe 07-Mar-2005.  Thanks.
