On http://www.idea.int/vt/country_view.cfm?id=2 , the table overflows into the right column because of long table headings. I inserted soft hyphens into them to help the browsers break the headings when needed. This seems to work in IE 8 and Google Chrome but not in Firefox.

Yeah, same thing on my end. It seems like it's a difference of attitude in terms of implementing the standards. You should file a bug at bugzilla and let the devs know about this. See if it hasn't been file already. Remember that bugzilla is for bug work, not discussions or complaints.

Thanks for the directions Morbus, I had a feeling this might not be the right place for these kinds of issues. The bug was apparently known at Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418975 , though they don't seem to be in a hurry to fix it.
