That isn't the problem
<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr>\r\n<td align="left" nowrap valign="middle" style="background-image: url(http://dochope.com/images/dochope_logo_paypal.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: left; width: 750px; height: 90px;"> </td>\r\n<td width="100%"> </td>\r\n</tr></table> The problem is InternetExplorer interprets the "100%" as 100% of what's left in the container after taking out the 750px for the first cell. Mozilla and Firefox take 100% of the container and truncate the cell that asked for 750px. This looks like a Gecko rendering bug to me. Unless the W3C spec says to take percentages before absolute values, which I doubt.

I'd file a bug on it.

Got Bernd, I see.
Nice. Heavy dude.
Even when he quoth thee W3C, you qouth back using such his own weapon against him. Nice tactic, he can't deny it.

Hmm, interesting response
I'm looking at my test case side-by-side in Mozilla and Firefox on Linux, and Firefox and Internet Explorer on Windows. One of these things is not like the others. Guess which?

Actually, I can't see a difference.
I pasted the fragment you put in the bug into a file and viewed it via IE6 (XPsp2), FireFox 1.0 and Opera 7.54. They all display it the same way: the first cell in the first table is all squashed up.

One thing that always causes me grief...
...is that I have a lot of tables that go wider than the display size - when you've got possibly a hundred columns in a table, it can be hard to view in the monitor width. Anyway, once the table exceeds the window boundary, the table layout rules should give up trying to squeeze it back in. Similar to the way lists used to operate in the IWE forums where the right shift would eventually mean that you get one word per line.
Not that this has anything to do with you current predicament... But it reminds me that the one column says use 100% while the other is not 0%... I've seen that method used not infrequently, but I still I'm not comfortable with it.
Edit Note: The other thing I wonder is whether specifying the width attribute in the style in the first column but doing it in the td attribute in the other is the problem. Will it work if they are both set in the same manner (i.e. both as width= or both as style='width:").
