 My initial WAG was that the javascript was in a loop. Probably because
 of the onresize event handler. TI is pretty sharp about these things I
 suspect it won't be much trouble for him to fix it. Neither is it much
 trouble to write your own resize code. I thought of this a couple weeks
 ago after seeing all the javascript rounded corners examples, if js is
 not a bad option there (it degrades well), then why not for the problem
 of having same sized columns? That's one thing table layouts do well
 that CSS just can't do without a little logic.

 I've heard that the rules of cricket are very simple.
