I have the following piece of HTML that creates a table with a scrollbar at the last column. My problem is that IE renders it differently than Firefox. Any clue would be greatly appreciated.

    }
</style>

<table cellspacing="0" style="border:solid 1px #000000;border-collapse:separate;padding:0 0         0 0;">

</table></td>

    You could use conditional comments in your header to send specific style declarations to internet explorer?

    <!--[if IE]>
Only IE will output what's between these brackets, style declarations etc.
<![endif]-->
