IE css table width

[julian_m]

I've a page (generated through PHP) which uses css in order to set up
their style. The page has a "main" table (class="a_table_principal")
where all content is included in.
In the css file, i've the following:

table.a_table_principal{
width: 800px;
}

All works fine both with Opera and Firefox, but it seems not working on
IE in the way expected.
(the table width is bigger than 800px)
Is this a known behavoir related to MSIE?

How much bigger?
An URL showing a test case would help.

too much bigger. I'll try to make a small example, coz the original
file has 45Kb of css only, so no one would want to take a look at it.
