Alternatively:
....
<td>
<div class="stretcher">Test</div>
</td>
....
..stretcher { min-width: 500px; }
// feed IEs an actual width, but exclude IE-Mac 5
* html .stretcher { /*\*/ width: 500px /* */ }
That way you do get the benefits of min-width combined with IE's bug
rides in to rescue a deficiency cack-handedness and no need for
semantic impurities. Honestly in the long run, if you can avoid
littering your code with meaningless empties you'll be thankful.
Whether or not you feed Mac IE the width or not is up to you
depending on which behaviour you prefer since it doesn't recognise
min-width but does honour the width property, er, properly.
