I can't get your jsbin to work in IE8, it errors out inside jsbin.

A <col> doesn't really have a width, it's a place to put styles that will apply to the column. I think what you're seeing is .css() making a desperate attempt to give you something. Notice that the actual elements return the actual pixel widths:

Is that what you were expecting, the pixel widths?
