No matter what I do (set fixed % or pixels etc) I cannot set fixed table cell
widths in my Frontpage web pages. Text won't wrap and my table cells crowd
each other out and with continued typing the table cell expands to infinity.
Either I am doing something wrong or the program I have is defective in some
way. It looks like I will have to abondon using Tables in Frontpage - period.

Please help me!!

Gary.

There is no such thing in HTML a absolute fixed width for tables or cell, they will always adjust to
the content entered. When entering text, the text must have spaces in order to wrap and the word
lengths must be smaller then the width of the cell/table.

The total width of all images in all rows must not exceed the total width of the table or the cell
the individual images are inserted into.

Try hitting the space bar when you are entering your text.
