Can anyone help me out here.

I have always designed sites on PC platform, but now work for a company using MAC’s. It is getting quite frustrating when viewing the pages produced in standard logic. The MAC however defies this factor.

My main problem is the structure of tables, what could be done in a few seconds for PC, is really taking much time with the MAC. A typical example of my problems are really related to % properties. For example I designed a site with a width value of 100% and to my attention it is activating scrollbars, when logically it should not.

Secondally we have vertical percentages. If you were to have a table at 100% divided by three, set the value for two fo the tables to 50px and 50px, leaving the last blank, on PC this would span 100%. But on the MAC, each of the tables is not abiding by this rule. Can anyone please put this to rest and either help me out or point me in the right direction fo useful resources,

Please please help - this is killing me.
