Misaligned table columns due to italics
Nathan Sokalski
italics. The following code is a copy of the code I used, the first table is
not italicized, the second is. You will notice that if you view the code
with a browser the cells in the second table will not line up. (The reason I
included the large amounts of text is because this problem only occurs when
the text is wrapped) Can someone tell me how to make the columns align
correctly?

Weird problem, and I've got no solution. I think it's got to do with the
paragraphs being wider than de column; a sort of bug in the browser, because
it should resize the columns, or wrap the contents earlier.
Btw: you should end each row, column and paragraph with </tr>, </td> and
</p>, just as you do with each table.
