The uri quoted explains everything. Basically, padding is causing the (HTML) border to be extended, instead of placing a gap between the text and the border, as should happen.

Sorry, I beg to differ. We ARE applying the padding to the table, it is showing up (properly) as space between the table's border (the outset) and the table's content (the table cell). Navigator did this wrong. To get the effect you show in the reference rendering, you should set the padding on the table CELL.
Eek! Good point! You are absolutely correct. Very sorry! I'd better find the browser I used to make my original "reference rendering" and report the bug to their authors! (I think it was IE... certainly wasn't NN4; and Opera does ignores padding on tables altogether, so...)
Correcting uri. Marking bug closed.
