Yes you are right there is an error but not in FF but *MSIE*. If you
have a table set to 100% of the containing element (height or width) AND
you add a border, the border is *added* to the dimension which is >100%.
If you trigger quirks mode IE does not add the border to the height
which is incorrect. Now if you fix the errors that others have informed
you and work with an HTML 4.01 strict you will have a better chance of
getting *MSIE* to play nice with the rules and more likely to get
x-browser consistency.
