That's a spectacularly bad choice. Did you ever check what it looks like in
Print Preview, for example?

So? You're not giving any relevant facts like the URL, so I give just the
general answer: that's how things should be expected to be. Different
browsers work differently. Do you realize what the width attribute _means_?
It is the suggested minimum width. On the other hand, you have probably far
too much stuff*) on the page, if the table requires, on some browser, that
much width.
*) I don't say "content", since much of the stuff is probably not content
proper but noise and distraction.
