Why does Internet Explorer show a 1px column as a much wider columb

[Dylan Levi]

I have a table setup with 1 row and three columns. The two outer columns are for content, and the middle column is 1px wide with a dark background color in use as a border/separator. For some reason in internet explorer, the column is showing up rather wide.
Here is the code that I am using:

<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" id="facilites">
  <tr>
    <th width="49%" scope="col" id="facilites">
    	Left Content
    </th>
    <td width="1px" bgcolor="#666633"></td>
    <th width="51%" scope="col" id="facilites">
    	Right Conent   
    </th>
   
  </tr>
</table>

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

1. You should never use tables for layout.
2. You're using deprecated attributes.
3. What version of IE are you using?
4. Are you using a doctype? If so which one?

Thanks, Death
