    table-Layout:fixed; ok for IE but not for FireFox

    Hi all.

    I'm trying to hide the extra content in a html table cell if the
    content is to wide.

    In IE it's easy, I just give the styling for the table an attribute of
    table-Layout:fixed but thie doesnt work for FireFox, the columns still
    get as wide as the content. I dont want to wrap the text either.
    If the content is too wide, I want to hide it.

    Thanks all.

    Graham

          The only reliable way I have been able to quickly do it in FF and my
          Safari is:

          But Opera is simply extraordinarily deaf to all such tricks and even
          ignores the font-size when it suits it!
