Set the table column width constant regardless of the amount of text in its cells?

Question

In my table I set the width of the first cell in a column to be `100px`.
However, when the text in one of the cell in this column is too long, the width of the column becomes more than `100px`. How could I disable this expansion?

Answer 1

You need to set the max-width of the td (table data cell).

td {

max-width: 100px;

overflow: hidden;

text-overflow: ellipsis;

white-space: nowrap;

}
