That sounds like not a bad idea. The problem is you've got padding and
borders so things won't add up properly.
But the general idea of giving the middle column something like width:
45%; margin-left: 25%; margin-right: 25% should do the trick from the
point of view of that stupid table.
Why not fix the CMS system?
