Table Width Inside Div

[satish_j]

need help relating to width of table inside a left floated div...Setting the width of table does not have any effect..The table is properly displayed in IE( inside its parent div),but for FF,it overflows out of the div..I googled and found that it is default behaviour of FF and IE that leads to this issue..I need any ideas or alternate tricks to display it properly in FF as well..any help???

Err, link or code?

<div id="sidebar"><table><tr><td>1</td><td>2</td><td>3</td><td>4</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td><td>5</td></tr></table></div>

css for div is:

text-align: center;padding: 10px;float: left;border: 1px solid #66ccff;width: 18%;	/*I need to display it on left side of page*/margin-bottom: 5px;

Any inputs now??

added position:absolute for body elementProb solved..

fine, but position: absolute will be create the error sometimes. i mean if you minimize or maximize your browser window the table content doesn't maximize or minimize with depend on browser. Anyway if it's work well go head
