um what?  that's for a table that's showing a rating of 3.4 (68%).  the 18%
and 7% width cells are to show the 0.4 portion beyond 3.0.

perhaps you need to catch up on the conversations that michele, joel, and i
had that led up to this:

http://test.evolt.org/article/rating_convo/17/16286/#comments

after you read the conversation and look at the various iterations i'm sure
it'll make more sense why it's ended up the way it has.

enjoy,
