Funny, Konqueror is fine here (version 3.5.1) on that page, with the
exception the tabs at the top are slightly out.
Maybe you have an older version? There've also been quite a few versions of
Firefox since 1.0.2, mostly security fixes but one major version.
Back to the OP, the jumping effect is almost certainly because of
table-based layout. The only cure is to change the order in the HTML so the
center column gets to the browser first, and then put the other stuff round
the sides using CSS.
