Tables and CSS

[Chevy]

Hi I have created a page that has a small table, the Table
is set to 200 px wide and the cells are 100 px each.
When the page is resized in explorer I wanted to white-
space to dissapear but not to wrap the text so I added the
line White-space: nowrap; to the TD of my CSS style sheet.
This works but if I go back into FP200 I cant change the
width of the cells without manualy changing the HTML or
removing the line White-space: nowrap; from the CSS.
Please HELP, should I have used a different command in the
CSS?
BTW if I use Nowrap in the HTML in the <TD> then all is OK.

I'd just put the nowrap in the html of the table if that works for you.
the problem you're seeing with fp/ ie is nothing compared to the problems
you'd see if you were checking it against a number of different browsers.
it's kind of frowned on these days but sometimes i'll make a gif image with
no color that is like 5px high by the length of the smallest i want a table
cell to ever bee and just drop it into the cell below the content. can't
wrap a graphic. ;-)
