I have a table with width:100% and it should have 3 columns as follows:
[50%-space/2][space][50%-space/2]
Now, I have this already
<table style="width:100%"><tr>
<td>left</td>
<td style="width:20px"></td> //space
<td>right</td>
</table>
This works fine, as long as there is always a "left" and "right" width the same width, but it stops working if one has a different width:
<table style="width:100%"><tr>
<td></td>
<td style="width:20px"></td> //space
<td>right</td> // right takes all the space from the first td
</table>
And if I set "left" and "right" each to 50%, the space in between is omitted:
<table style="width:100%"><tr>
<td style="width:50%"></td>
<td style="width:20px"></td> //space
<td style="width:50%">right</td> // right takes all the space from the first td
</table>
Unfortunately, the space cannot be in % in this case (which would solve the problem easily). Also using CSS columns is not (yet) an option.
Is there a solution for this?

I have a table with a format like this
<table>
<thead>
<th> </th>
<th>foo1</th>
<th>foo2</th>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Text that makes the cell use two lines of height</th>
<td className="grid-item">
<b>P</b>
</td>
<td className="grid-item">
<div>✔ 17/10/2019</div>
</td>
</tr>
/* more tr s */
</tbody>
</table>
and when click a external button, it turns something like this:
<table>
<thead>
<th> </th>
<th>foo1</th>
<th>foo2</th>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Text that makes the cell use two lines of height</th>
<td className="grid-item green_border">
<div className="clickeable-cpopup">
<b>P</b>
</div>
</td>
<td className="grid-item green_border">
<div className="clickeable-cpopup">
<div>✔ 17/10/2019</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
/* more tr s */
</tbody>
</table>
and the div "clickeable-cpopup" has a onClick function and it needs to fill all space of its td parent, height and width, otherwise i click the td instead of the div and nothing happens.
the "grid-item" has padding: 0 and i tried the solution of apply display: flex to the "grid-item", it works in filling the space but the table format gets messed up.
Also I tried with better results giving position: relative to the "grid-item" and absolute to both "clickeable-cpopup" and "content". The clickeable div use all space in the td but then the cell that contains the date doesnt adjust to its content (the width of the cell is smaller that the lengh of the date)
How could I achieve this? I would like to avoid make the td clickeable.
Fixing the cell size is not a good option, a column that only contains <b>P</b> should be smaller thant a column that contains both P and date, an P could become a date and vice versa and some headers of the first column may use 2 lines of height.
And of course neither width: auto nor 100% work since the "grid-item" doesn't have a fixed size
I am using the trick of assigning a small width to a table cell for it to wrap its content so the following works fine (I want the second and third cell to be assigned their width automatically according to their content):
<table style="width:100%;">
<tr>
<td style="width:1px;">11111111</td>
<td>1111111111111111</td>
<td>11111111</td>
<td style="width:1px;">11111111</td>
</tr>
</table>
But in my project, I am going to animate the width of the cell content to zero so I want the cell to be also of "0" width because I have a hover styling on the cell and even 1 px will trigger this styling when the mouse hovers over it. But assigning the cells 0 width instead of 1px is totally ignored.
One solution I thought of was binding the hover styling to the div inside the td. But is there a way to make the cell width really "0"?
try to use table-layout:fixed and width:0px on the td
<table style="width:100%;table-layout: fixed;">
<tr>
<td style="width: 0px;"> </td>
<td>1111111111111111</td>
<td>11111111</td>
<td style="width: 0px;"></td>
</tr>
</table>
I have two tables inside a table :
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="tdkqtb">
<table border="1">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Giải</th>
<th>#cityID</th>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
<td class="tdkqtb">
<table border="1">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Đầu</th>
<th>Đuôi</th>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr></tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Now I need to set the width of the two tables fixed. How can I do that? For example I want all tables to have the same width as the first twos. I mean they must have a fixed width for each column, the first table will contains 70% width of the parent table, and the second contains the rest. The columns in the two tables must have fixed width too!
Not sure if I understood what you want but you can just select the required element of the table or the whole table and give a width in css
table {
width: 70%;
}
If you have multiple tables, give them ids or classes to seperate for different styles. Same for the th, tr, td and so on.
First of all, why not going Tableless?
Then you have to put some CSS into it, like DasBoot said, to give a full table a width you should do this:
table {
width: 70%;
}
The same thing for specific td, tr, th or whatever element you want to style. If what you are going for is a maximum width or a minimum width you can use max-width and min-width appropriately. Why not put this code on a jsfiddle and test the results live to see what you need to do?

I'm making a tabular layout and I really need:
2 columns, of variable width
columns have the same width
columns are no wider than necessary
I have found that "table-layout: fixed" can achieve this, if I set both columns to have "width: 50%". Here's an example:
CSS:
.mytable {
border-collapse: collapse;
table-layout: fixed;
}
.fifty {
width: 50%;
}
HTML:
<table class="mytable" border=1>
<tr>
<td class="fifty">hello</td>
<td class="fifty">x</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="fifty">a</td>
<td class="fifty">longer</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="fifty">reallyreallylong</td>
<td class="fifty">medium</td>
</tr>
</table>
This is exactly what I want, and I'm happy, except that everything goes out the window when this table appears within another table. In that case, all columns shrink to the minimum possible size (at least for my version of Chrome).
Here is a jsFiddle demonstrating my dilemma: http://jsfiddle.net/KTkZm/
Can anyone shed light on this, and hopefully find a way to get the inner table to render as it does outside of the table? Thanks!
Check below jsfiddle link. It's Working Fine.

I have to dynamically create a table with a variable number of columns, determined at runtime.
Can somebody tell me if it's possible to have a html table with equal size columns that are fully stretched?
If you don't know how many columns you are going to have, the declaration
table-layout: fixed
along with not setting any column widths,
would imply that browsers divide the total width evenly - no matter what.
That can also be the problem with this approach, if you use this, you should also consider how overflow is to be handled.
<table width="400px">
<tr>
<td width="100px"></td>
<td width="100px"></td>
<td width="100px"></td>
<td width="100px"></td>
</tr>
</table>
For variable number of columns use %
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="(100/x)%"></td>
</tr>
</table>
where 'x' is number of columns
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO:
HTML:
<table id="my-table"><tr>
<td> CELL 1 With a lot of text in it</td>
<td> CELL 2 </td>
<td> CELL 3 </td>
<td> CELL 4 With a lot of text in it </td>
<td> CELL 5 </td>
</tr></table>
CSS:
#my-table{width:100%;} /*or whatever width you want*/
#my-table td{width:2000px;} /*something big*/
if you have th you need to set it too like this:
#my-table th{width:2000px;}
Just add style="table-layout: fixed ; width: 100%;" inside <table> tag and also if you do not specify any styles and add just style=" width: 100%;" inside <table> You will be able to resolve it.
table {
width: 100%;
th, td {
width: 1%;
}
}
