Hello
I need a table with cells of equal sizes. It is important, that if the text is
too big for a cell, that the text gets cropped, so the cell ddoesn't grow. For
this I've introduced block-containers, for which I define a height plus set
overflow=hidden. I also define a margin, as I want to have a certain space
between the edge of the cell and the content(text). This system nearly works,
except that on the left and on the right side of the block-container there is a
space outside the block container plus the same amount of space on the inside of
the block-container, while on top and bottom there is just space outside of the
block-container (as I had wished). In short: margins on the left and right side
get duplicated (see diagrams below).
I admit that I have a very limited understanding of the border/margin/space
properties in general, but I have tried out so many things now, and have tried
to find reference, and nothing seems to work. I appreciate help, even if you
just point me to a good reference.
---------------DIAGRAMS--------------------------------------
diagramm: outer border = edge of table-cell, inner border = border of
block-container/block
My goal:(space between border and text on side and top should be equal

What I get: (space around blockcontainer gets repeated on the inside-left and
inside-right)
