I may have jumped into conclusions. When trying to describe the problem and its solution, I was unable to reproduce this bug. I suppose I found something real but in a special case I cannot find now. > It appears that IE 7 implements <td nowrap> in a manner that does not > quite correspond to a white-space: nowrap declaration for the cell > element, as we might expect. It affects whitespace handling but not > e.g. line breaks after "?". I'm confused. Now that I test this, it seems that <td nowrap> does not work for a cell with a _fixed width_. Moreover, in that case, white-space: nowrap does not work either, when set on the cell element (td). But it works when set for, say, a <span> element inside the <td> element.
