In my best browser for css, Mozilla, the child table falls outside (on the
right) of the central div (it has to really) when the window is reduced in
width to about 60% of a 20" 1024x870 screen (a width not that small). Plus,
there is all sorts of overlap trouble when the fonts are enlarged in
everything *but* from within the table itself (good old tables, their strong
point, a little world of their own, keeping their dignity and integrity in
any rough sea).
