..panelHeaderContent
{
width: 290px; ...
,
Yep, explicit width needed. Usually IE borks if you do not specify a
width on floated blocks.

Which Opera? Because Opera 8.51 computes DIV 'panelHeaderContent' much
less than 290 pixels but as the min width of both contained DIVs which I
do not believe the OP wishes.

But I must say all the nested floating DIVs with a TABLE? Looks like
some need to clean up their 'design'.
