In a <td> element, the width attribute specifies (by HTML specs) the
suggested minimum width, so both IE and Firefox behave by the specs, just
differentöy.

Use <table style="table-layout: fixed">. This effectively sets, as a side
effect, the total width of the table to 100%, but this seems to be what you
want.
