The page contains 2 left-floated columns.

In the left (main) column, there should be some more content in a <table> below the Submit button (this is displayed as expected in Chrome and Opera).

But Firefox moves this content to the right of the column it should be in, so that it overlaps the content of the right column.

Attachment: testcase

This reduced testcase shows the issue. The table should be contained in the floating div, but instead it gets moved over to the right.

It displays as expected in Chrome and Opera.
