Hello good pple of the forum.
I think 'am going crazy with my table design in dreamweaver. Ok, i created a 80% width table in a page and split it into three cell in columns, the left n right taking 20% and the middle taking 60%. The problem is that i can't get the text in the big cell (60%) to wrap round the tables borders. I don't know, this is turning to be a nightmare pls help!!!!!!!!!!!!!.whenever i type in text the other 20% cells get widened messing up the whole layout!!!!!!!

If u think u can u can

DWMX often resizes the cells in tables when you put things in them. Sometimes just clicking on the <table> tag or going into code view and then returning to normal view will cause DWMX to redraw the table but with the correct layout.

Hi Shola

Table width = 80%
Column width = 20% + 60% + 20% = 100%

Try resizing the columns to match the 80% table width total you require.
