Greenguy's Board - View Single Post - CSS + tables + FireFox = swedguy going nuts

I'm ripping my hair out!

What I want to achieve is the way IE calculates table width. If you don't set a width, it expands to the biggest item in the table.

I tried style="min-width:700px;max-width:100%" which worked perfectly in IE. But it's not the proper behavior for CSS2, since those doesn't apply to tables so it doesn't work in FF.

width="auto" doesn't seem to work either, except in IE.

Anyone got a clue?
