text box expanding to full td width inappropriatley

I am not sure that I am worried about Explorer (5.2) for the Mac,
There is so much new technology that no longer works on that browser.
Very interesting regarding the Win-Safari.

So I guess the bottom line is that I stick with the "float" ....??
