Table Wrapping/Filling

[fatcodeguy]

Hi,

I have a table with several colums. One column specifically will have a lot of text, and I want that column to wrap every 50 characters or so. However, I want only that column to wrap.

I want this because at the moment, that text column takes up so much space, that the columns that follow it develop breaks in the line where I don't want them.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!!

1) give it an explicit width
2) make sure you're not specifying "nowrap"

<table>
  <tr>
    <td style="width: 100px;"></td>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
  </tr>
</table>

Or if you want it to wrap 50 characters, use [tt]width: 50em;[/tt].
