I've reduced my HTML right down to the bare bones to illustrate my
problem. What tends to happen is that, if there are spaces, then the
cell retains its correct size but as soon as longer text appears, the
column-sizing goes haywire.
I've posted a simple example below where I would like column 02 to keep
the declared width of 66.
Any ideas here?
I'll try experimenting with Neredbojias suggestions (next posting) and
will report back.
Regards and thanks,
