this same problem (of needing nbsp to display empty table cells) occurred back in the days of Netscape 4.7. It would suck if they've regressed back to that. Back then, we had to solve this by having a special ResponseWriter. The special ResponseWriter would detect if a <TD> was followed by a </TD> with no intervening non-whitespace character, and automatically insert an NBSP for netscape. --arjuna

Hi Simon, I've seen similar issues to this but not yet with Firefox 2.0. It can be a pretty annoying issue because placing text into something that didn't contain text before may alter its dimensions--even if a specific width and height are specified. When that was the case, I believe we worked around it by specifying either a "line-height: 1px;" style or possibly an "overflow: hidden;" style. If the container is larger than a character, then there is nothing to worry about. On a somewhat related note, I'm not sure the DOM structure of the tabs in the navigationPane are even in a format that is very flexible for alternative appearances. I'd be happy to see it restructured to be less reliant on tables--possibly even structured so the DOM elements actually overlap instead of having graphics to give the illusion of overlapping tabs.
