I have atable, properties as 700 pixels wide and two columns. I have one column set to 200 pixels and another to 500 pixels..

As i type into one of the cells, the column width widens, but still shows as 700 px wide table, col 200 wwide, its quite obvious that i exceeded these settings but they still show.

I want them to stick!

HOW??

Thanks in advance

Greetings,

What are you hoping to place within the table-cell? Regular type-written text? Or something more like what you've entered?

The reason why the text isn't going to the next line, and keeping the table at the correct width, is because the text you entered doesn't have spaces. Try entering something with spaces, such as this response, then it'll work out fine :).
