tables render differently

WinXP, VS 2008, IE 8; all updates in place
I have a page with two tables, one above the other. The columns use the same style and in in the design window, the right end says the columns are the same number of pixesl wide.
BUT they DONT render the same size, even in the design view. The code is:

<span style="font-size:x-small Current
(unsaved) snapshot:<span style="color:#0000ff; font-size:x-small <span style="color:#0000ff; font-size:x-small </
