[teaching with drupal] funky table problem

[Dan Butcher]

You're fine as long as someone's doesn't go under 1071 px wide with their
browser window--which means the 1024px monitors will still jam it up,
because at less than 1071, your right sidebar still rides over the center
section. I would still change the min-width setting in your css so that
smaller windows will get the horizontal scroll bar and not the overlapping
columns.
