There is a php page I have created at work which works fine with Firefox 3.6. In one specific page Firefox 4 does not show correctly a table with CSS. I tried to remove the css and just have the table with no styling but the problem persists.

the php file is this:

<html>
<head>
<title>Pending Issues Close Case</title>

<style type="text/css">
#blinking {text-decoration: blink; text-align:left; color:#FF0000;}

body {
background-image:url('on2.jpg');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:700 50;
background-attachment:fixed;
}

#efms
{
font-family:"Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
border-collapse:collapse;
}
#efms td, #efms th 
{
font-size:1em;
border:1px solid #98bf21;
padding:3px 7px 2px 7px;
}
#efms th 
{
font-size:1.1em;
text-align:left;
padding-top:5px;
padding-bottom:4px;
background-color:#A7C942;

The problem is for the table in line 188. it should look like this: http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/5183/shouldlooklike.png but instead it looks like this: http://img860.imageshack.us/img860/323/lookslikethis.png

The same problem appears in IE.

Please do not consider my previous post as I found out that it was a coding error, a forgotten ">"
