You can mix them up all you like, e.g.
<tr>
<td style="width: 200px">...</td>
<td>another cell</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width: 50%">...</td>
<td>another cell</td>
</tr>
and the browser will bend over backwards to try to make as much as what
you've asked for as close to true as possible, even where it's self
contradictory.
You can't set percentage and pixel width at the same time on the same
_cell_, but you can do that on two cells in the same column, which is
effectively asking both for a width and a percentage width on that
column.
For example in this case, the browser might stretch the second
auto-width column to make 200px and 50% both true, provided there's
400px available.
I would say though it's better not to rely on this kind of thing. If
it's specified, I don't know where, and you can expect to find
differences between browsers. Simple is best.
