this could be related to nesting of divs (scrollpanel) within tables
cells (most other widgets) ... the crux of the issue is:

tables cells can never, ever, EVER be constrained. ever.  they will
ALWAYS expand as needed -- percentages are undefined.

i'm not sure if that's the prob off hand and i'm short on time, but
i've written about this several times over the years, presenting
solutions:

... also, take a look at the `DockPanel`.
