Hi
In the example below on a normal size screen everything looks the
way you would think it would (on IE6). My problem is what happens when I
add more entries into the table (equivilent here to making the IE window
smaller)
- If you make the window smaller then the first column text starts to
wrap, which I don't want
- If you remove the width part, which gets ignored anyway, then the
text
no longer wraps and a scrollbar appears, which is what I want.
- just adding the attribute nwrap doe what I want, but I would rather have
a css solution
The problem is that I do want to set the width of the first column,
but
I want the rest of the table to be as small and fitted as possible
Any ideas?
