table data widths. IE not playing...

[webmistress]

I am laying out some data in a table and it should look like this:




And it does in Firefox and Safari... but IE 6 or 7 is not playing! Here is a preview page. I have set a width on the photo <td> cell and thought that would be ok. It's been a while since I had to use tables in this way, so I am a bit stuck!

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Cheers.

IE is a bit more random than other browsers when it comes to allowing it to decide on table column widths.

If you ensure you apply an explicit width (using CSS syntax, of course!) to the three cells of your first row, you should be able to achieve the layout you're after in all browsers.

Let me give that a go... I'll be back Thanks.

hmm odd... even setting the widths on the first 3 cols (<th> <td> <td>), it doesn't set the width properly. I have checked in IE 7 so far.
