I cannot confirm this.
Using the code below, both tables have the full width:

<div style="width: 80%; border: 1px solid green;">

<table width="100%" border="1">
<tr><td>foo</td></tr>
</table>

<table width="100%" border="1">
<tr><td>bar</td></tr>
</table>

</div>

There might be something wrong with the way your tables are formatted
(perhaps you specified column widths that are in conflict with the 100%?).
