However, there is some magic happening that I cant seem to fathom (its tables for crying out loud, how much magic could there possibly be?)
How is it possible to set a table's column width and have it obeyed like jqGrid does!? If I try to replicate this, even if I set every <td style='width: 20px'>, as soon as the content of one of those cells is greater than 20px, the cell expands!
Any ideas or insights?

<table class="fixed"> <col width="20px" /> <col width="30px" /> <col width="40px" /> <tr> <td>text</td> <td>text</td> <td>text</td> </tr> </table>and this be your CSS

- 12 The accepted answer does not work unless you explicitly apply a width for the desired table. Works perfectly whether you use a unit or a percentage. Figured I'd point this out since @totymedli's answer didn't get any votes and I didn't want users to ignore it. However, the word-break suggestion isn't necessary unless that's what you're aiming for. – thebdawk05 Commented Jul 29, 2013 at 18:12
- What happens when you have rows with only 1 TD element that spans multiple columns? Using your sample code, if you had <TD colspan="3"> in a row by itself would it be 90px? – sab669 Commented Jun 17, 2015 at 13:43
- Thanks it helped. For data overlapping, add this table.fixed td { word-wrap: break-word; }. – Parag Tyagi Commented Jan 5, 2016 at 10:52
- The word-break suggestion isn't necessary, but it is useful for the rest of SO users and quite pertinent to the question, as overflowing content in fixed width tables is almost certain to ocurr in most scenarios. – Amy Pellegrini Commented Feb 24, 2017 at 16:41
Now in HTML5/CSS3 we have better solution for the problem. In my opinion this purely CSS solution is recommended:
table.fixed {table-layout:fixed; width:90px;}/*Setting the table width is important!*/ table.fixed td {overflow:hidden;}/*Hide text outside the cell.*/ table.fixed td:nth-of-type(1) {width:20px;}/*Setting the width of column 1.*/ table.fixed td:nth-of-type(2) {width:30px;}/*Setting the width of column 2.*/ table.fixed td:nth-of-type(3) {width:40px;}/*Setting the width of column 3.*/ <table class="fixed"> <tr> <td>Veryverylongtext</td> <td>Actuallythistextismuchlongeeeeeer</td> <td>We should use spaces tooooooooooooo</td> </tr> </table>
You need to set the table's width even in haunter's solution. Otherwise it doesn't work. Also a new CSS3 feature that vsync suggested is: word-break:break-all;. This will break the words without spaces in them to multiple lines too. Just modify the code like this:
table.fixed { table-layout:fixed; width:90px; word-break:break-all;}Final result

Any suggestions on how to utilize this solution with a table that contains colspan > 1? – Eric K Commented Jan 16, 2014 at 16:31
- @QuantumDynamix I fixed this by including as the first row, a row with no colspans, just all individual columns with widths. I then hid that row with 0 height, border:none, visibility:hidden, padding:0px etc., then the second row is the first one I want seen where there are colspans. The first row with individual fixed width cells establishes the widths. – AaronLS Commented Mar 18, 2014 at 16:42
- @totymedli Any ideas how to get my table to take on the sum of all my column widths? My table is generated dynamically a bit and I so can't calculate in advance the table width, but I don't want to use 100% because that stretches some elements. – AaronLS Commented Mar 18, 2014 at 16:43
- 11 Are you sure you can use table-layout on a td element? – Nick Commented Feb 8, 2014 at 1:18
- @Nick - it works okay. Hovewer i have to add min-width and max-width property also (same value as width), and then it became truly fixed width. – Denis Khay Commented May 11, 2018 at 14:27
I had one long table td cell, this forced the table to the edges of the browser and looked ugly. I just wanted that column to be fixed size only and break the words when it reaches the specified width. So this worked well for me:
<td><div style='width: 150px;'>Text to break here</div></td>You don't need to specify any kind of style to table, tr elements. You may also use overflow:hidden; as suggested by other answers but it causes for the excess text to disappear.

This will allow you not to break the text unless you reach your width limit. And the table cell won't have empty space if your text is smaller than the specified width. <td><div style='max-width: 150px;'>Text to break here</div></td> – Tarik Commented Jul 11, 2016 at 14:51
for FULLSCREEN width table:
table width MUST be 100%
if need N colunms, then THs MUST be N+1
example for 3 columns: table.fixed { table-layout: fixed; width: 100%; } table.fixed td { overflow: hidden; } <table class="fixed"> <col width=20 /> <col width=20 /> <col width=20 /> <tr> <th>1</th> <th>2</th> <th>3</th> <th>FREE</th> </tr> <tr> <td>text111111111</td> <td>text222222222</td> <td>text3333333</td> </tr> </table>
