I'll second Kevin's comments (all of them), and add this.  The first 
difference I see in Opera is a difference in column widths.  Here's the markup:

=====
           <td valign="top" align="left" width="65%
                   ">
=====

I suspect Opera doesn't accept 
"size-five-percent-newline-tab-tab-space-space" as a usable width attribute.
