Is it possible to control column width in a table

[roger]

I have a tiddler set up that contains the following:

|!Create Case Notes |>|>|
|<<tiddler TabCreateNotes>> |>|''Your ~UserName is:'' <<option
txtUserName>> |
|!|>|>|
|<<tiddler TabTrialCalendar>> |>|>|
|!Previous Case Notes |>| !Scanned Notes & Email |
| |!| |
|<<tiddler TabPreviousNotes>> |!|<<tiddler TabScannedNotes>>|

This works fine except for one thing. The content displayed in the
<<tiddler TabPreviousNotes>> cell can be difficult to read when it
gets squished up by contents of the <<tiddler TabScannedNotes>> cell.

Is there any way to control the width of a particular table cell?

Please disregard this inquiry. I decided to just move the entries
around on the table instead.

Wait! Please *don't* disregard! I've been wondering the same thing. I
don't see a way to apply "width" as a table tag attribute, and
applying as a CSS setting doesn't seem to work either ... and maybe
its not supposed to on tables. The O'Reilly "Definitive CSS" chapter
on tables was of no help either. So far the only thing I can figure
out is to force the column widths clumsily either by putting in non-
breaking spaces, or (possibly) the old glass-image trick.

Thanks!
