[thelist] Can't select text?

A commonly known bug in Netscape 4.xxx is the inability to select text in a
table cell if the table is given an align="left" argument.  

View the following code in NN 4.x:

<html>
<head>
<title>Table Test</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left">
  <tr>
    <td>try and select me in Netscape</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Then try removing the table alignment.

I've seen this no other web pages, now it's happening on mine. When I try 
to select text, it does not work. Anyone have any idea why this would be?
