[Peter van der Woude [:Peter6]]

it would be a good start if they would correct their
http://www.dw-world.de/dwelle/cda/allgemein/css/0,3368,1_en,00.css

they use an undifined class=class=MsoNormal which suggests someone made that
part of the page with M$-word

tech evan de-DE ?

This isn't an issue in Mozilla1.7.
I believe this is introduced with bug 277232.
There is table cell with nowrap (the second or third nested one), which you can
find in the source. And the page is in standards mode.

Getting rid of the 1000+ validation errors wouldn't hurt.

Does "sprawls across the screen" mean huge horizontal scroll? For me the DP
viewport holds about 1/4 the width of the page after I've zoomed enought to read
it. Even in 1.0.4, which doesn't have the horizontal scroll problem, the page
badly tolerates zoom.
