since this affects calendar...nominating for rtm

My impression of the severity of the problem: the page doesn't look good, but it's not unusable. My impression of the cause of the problem: we're not handling incremental reflow (cause in this case by the images loading asynchronously) inside a 3-level nested table where the outer tables have no width specified and the inner table has %-width specified. I think Chris has several bugs with a similar flavor. Note to Eric and Lisa: Netcenter could work around this bug by adding width and height information to the <IMG> tags on the page. This would be a very good idea for them to do anyway, because it makes loading on all browsers (that I know of) much faster.
Summary: Wrong layout → Incremental layout of nested table wrong
chrisn, greggl -- Netcenter needs to modify markup to avoid triggering this issue.
please mark this rtm- : per buster's assessment of the severity of this. Gregg: are you responsible for this page? I see it's Calendar Express so I'm wondering this is maintained by IS.
No, I am not responsible for this page, will ask Netscape.com programming.
added "Netscape Calendar Express" to summary to help find duplicates.
