    your table structure is all to cock. As you're using two nested tables why not make the main content cell one nested table? I used the following code and it works in IE6. The sizing may be wrong as I just took the most obvious measurements from your code (I couldn't be bothered to fathom it out)

    <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
    <tr>
    <td width="14">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="187">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="14">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="703">

    <table width="703" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
    <tr>
    <td colspan="3" height="290">&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <td colspan="3" height="20">&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <td width="382" height="290">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="19" height="290">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="310" height="290">&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <td colspan="3">&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <td width="382" height="290">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="19" height="290">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="310" height="290">&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    </td>
    <td width="14">&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>
    </table>

    :: with apologies to other qbners for posting table code in the pv (and nested table code at that o_O) ::
