You did something wrong. (To get a more specific solution, specify a more
specific problem, with a URL.)

I'm afraid not, except by assigning explicit widths and heights for the
cells, e.g. td { height: 1em; width: 1em; }. Additional rules may be needed
if there is a real risk of content overflow in cells.
You can make the width of a cell a percentage of available width, but
there's no way (except client-side scripting) to make the height the same as
the width then.
