Need ,ore information to be honest. Is it only a certain browser? By default, td elements are only as wide as the content that is in them unless you have a specific width set on the td element via CSS or inline attribute in the HTML.
Also, keep in mind, when I say content that is in them, if you have a column of 6 cells and the last cell's content is the widest, all of the previous cells will stretch to the same width of the 6th cell. And in your CSS example, you have a 20px padding for both left and right, which provides additional width of the cells.
