Comment (by tellyworth):

 The problem seems to stem from the use of relative and absolute
 positioning within the tables - it affects the height of containers in
 unexpected ways, especially with buggy browsers.

 I was unable to come up with a fix that retained the same positioning
 methods, but switching to floats and divs in the regular document flow
 fixed the problem.  The enclosed patch fixes it, works properly and looks
 acceptable in all the browsers I've tested (IE6, Opera/win, Safari and FF
 on OS/X).  The only known issue with it is that the clickmask that made
 the entire row clickable is gone.  I don't consider that a major drawback
 because I have some unconfirmed reports that the clickmask interferes with
 the UI in some browsers.
