Hi Karl, Thanks very much for taking the time to put this up. The issue I see with this, is you set the column width to 33% (100/number of columns). In my tables I have 10-15 columns and I do not want them to be the same size - I need them to auto size based on the data. I played around with your code and when I added more columns, some with very short data (e.g. 4 characters), the headers and data got misaligned. I have 10 tables and they are all different and I don't want to have to have a style for each of my 125 cells. I'd like it to work as it does now (where I don't set any widths) and the table just works as I want. Thanks again. ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
