Why does IE overlap tables?

Before, I had something like:

<TABLE ALIGN=LEFT WIDTH=50%>
......
</TABLE>
<TABLE ALIGN=RIGHT WIDTH=50%>
.....
</TABLE>
<TABLE WIDTH=100%>
....
</TABLE>

Table 3 in that series was being shown on top of right-aligned table 2. I fixed it by adding one big table with two seperate rows to seperate the first and second table from the third.

BUT, I really shouldn't have to do that.
 
There's your problem. Align in table aligns the table relative other content not absolutely on the page. Like align=left|right for images. It floats the element.
BTW your background colors didn't show in NS/Opera (haven't checked again now)
