Ya know I don't recall all the details of it, but I would guess it has
something to do with allowing access to the table if the table is more
then 100% of the viewable area and or issues with Opera, IE 5-7 and
Safari.

Perhaps you may recall some of it.

As far as the mouse wheel goes, mine works just fine in almost everything
I view it in, the exception being an old mozilla browser before they
fixed the scroll issue.
