With Netscape 7.1 - Elements In Table Cell Wrap

I display all of the elements of my page within a table which should expand to be just large enough to hold all the elements. Works fine in IE.

But in N in a row of a table I have two drop down menus which would fit just fine in the row. But N puts one over the other.

I tried the text controls <nobr> and nowrap and they didn't help.

I solved the problem with <table width=xxx> making xxx a large enough number to hold the two drop down menus beside each other. But now as the size of the drop down menus change I will have to adjust xxx. I like things automatic.

Any ideas? Thanks, Peter

The only thing I can think of trying is nesting a table in that spot with two cells, one for each dropdown.

I've run into this kind of thing with Netscape as well. I'm not sure why it happens but I know it can be a bear to work-around.
