Actually, I found the problem. 

In the line 

    <colgroup><col width=30><col width="*"><col width=160></colgroup>

the element <col width="*"> seems to confuse Mozilla (except in
blobs.html, which looks ok for some mysterious reason). If the asterisk
is replaced by a fixed width, Mozilla renders the page fine (and it
still rescales the table to fit into the page, which I would not have
expected).

Also the whole colgroup can be removed and the page still looks
fine in Mozilla, Opera, and Netscape (In Netscape 4.74 for
Linux I also have to remove <script type="text/javascript"
src="http://rsj.mobilixnet.dk/info/banner"></script> or the page isn't
displayed at all)
