It has long been my most inconvenient aspect of tables that, since their
2 dimensional nature can't translate into nested tags which we use to
refer to everything else, CSS can't get hooks based on columns.
I have a table structure that looks like this:
<table 1>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
...
</td>
<td>
<table 2>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Table 2 contains a lot of information in large chunks. My problem is
that table 2 needs to be in the same row as the first td of table 1, but
due to the table layout's foremost respect of lines of text within
cells, table 2 and its containing td often end up clearing the td before
them in the same tr of table 1.
Does anybody know of any pure CSS mechanics that would allow me to tell
cells within certain rows to break the line if necessary?
Regards,
Barney
