Sizing Tables
By default, the size of a table is determined by the contents of the table's cells. If you type text (or insert other elements) inside a table cell, the cell's width expands as necessary to fit the data. The width of any column, therefore, will be that of the widest cell in the column. Note: In WebObjects Builder, a cell does not resize until you have completed editing the cell and tabbed to another cell or moved out of the table.If you want to set the size of a table or cell explicitly, use the Inspector:
- To set the width or height of a table, select the table and use the Table Inspector. You can enter values that correspond to HTML attributes controlling the size of the table.
- To set the width or height of a cell, select the cell and use the Table Data Inspector. Changing a cell's size affects the size of the column or row containing the cell.
