typically, you don't want all your column widths to total 100%. you should leave one without a width.

for instance, if you need four evenly spaced columns, do this:

<TR>
<TD WIDTH="25%">col 1</TD>
<TD WIDTH="25%">col 2</TD>
<TD WIDTH="25%">col 3</TD>
<TD>col 4</TD>
</TR>

the browser knows the last column is also 25%, because that's all that's left, but some browsers mess things up if you try to absolutely specify a total of 100%.

likewise, with 3 columns...

<TR>
<TD WIDTH="33%">col 1</TD>
<TD>col 2</TD>
<TD WIDTH="33%">col 3</TD>
</TR>

let the middle column take the extra 1% to keep it symmetrical.
