I am new to jQuery, and am trying to see if it can be used to
replicate some flash-type UI features that my client wants. I created
a simple demo page that works OK in IE8 and FF 3.5, but looks terrible
on a Mac using Safari. If anyone can help me figure out how to work
around this issue, I'd appreciate it.

My sample page is:
www.archicadtemplate.com/jquery

The effect we're trying to create is used as a navigation feature on
the following site:
www.assembledge.com

It is a horizontal bar with a category name that expands (gets longer)
and reveals subcategories that are clickable links. The effect in
Flash is quite smooth and the client likes how it moves. I don't want
to use Flash for the site, so jQuery is a natural alternative we're
considering.

In Safari, in the lower example on my page, the table cells expand
erratically - the right hand one jumps to the far right then resets
properly after the rest of the width animation is finished; when reset
back to the original size, the table cells are now separated with a
gap rather than appearing continuous (they look nice when the page is
first opened).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
