Thanks, all. Well, Robert, it's weird. When I turn wrapping off or on it makes no difference. Wrap and nowrap make no difference, and I am working in html. The setting "td=, etc." makes ALL the cells bigger or smaller. The answer I found online ( http://www.mountaindragon.com/html/tables2.htm )makes it possible to make cells of uneven sizes. As I did on my site: http://artpepper.net in three different sections: the orange section and the two gray ones, below it.
