I would think that FF is correct for css 2. If both left and
right take up 50%, and there is added something extra (eg a 1 px
border or padding) in just one of these, then it must take up a
little more than the 50% you specified. Width, strange as it may
seem, mostly refers to the horizontal area for content.
