examine this page with SM 1.1.17:
http://villageelectronicsservice.com/VacationSchedule.aspx
Now use: SM 2, FF3.0/3.5, Omniweb, Opera or iCab.
In all of those All-in-ones and Web Browsers The page for me views as it
should.
It display as intended SeaMonkey 1.1.*, IMO. There's a weird table
definition used to lay out the problem content:
<table class="MS_WH_ZoneRow">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="WIDTH: 1%"/>
<td style="WIDTH: 10%">...</td>
<td style="WIDTH: 89%"/>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Note the abbreviated empty-element XML syntax used is not compatible
with the "text/html" type served, but what's really causing trouble
is the second <td style="WIDTH: 10%">...</td> element which holds
the main content. Why the author has chosen to specify 10% of the
available space for the main content and 89% for its right margin is
not clear to me. What we probably see with the more modern browsers
is effect of the newer _non-normative_ automatic table layout [1]
algorithm recommended just lately.
