cells in table are not equal

's Computer Specifications

I have a table where I am setting up a column's width using width="16%" for
example. I have 7 columns.
I am specifying the width starting from the second column. They all have the
same percent.
Why wouldn't all the columns be an equal width? What is a way of making
sure that column width is the same
throughout the table no matter how complex the table is?

Thanks

Because 7 x 16 equals 112 percent.

There is not a good way by only setting widths in your HTML. If you MUST
have the same widths, use CSS, or if not that, use spacer GIF images to hold
each cell to the desired width.
