I have a table 10 rows 10 columms. How to type text??

G

Greg

When I start typing in the first cell, or for that matter any cell, the other
cells move dramatically. How can I keep the size of the cells in the table
from moving when I type in a cell? I can type a few letters and the other 9
cells will dramatically shift to the right. Is there no way to keep those
cells stationary?
The table is 10 rows and 10 columns

All cells must have content of some kind, 2 spaces, transparent gif image, etc.

Have you set your table width, cell width, etc?

There is no way to keep those cells stationery as long as they have no
content. Cell dimensions are pretty ineffective in this regard. I
recommend never using them.

The best way to 'secure' your tables is to either shim them in place with
transparent GIF images (shims) that can be resized as needed and then placed
in strategic locations in the table, or to use CSS to control the widths of
the necessary table cells.

A single   is all that's needed.

Only if you used the menu to insert it, otherwise you have to press the space bar twice to get a
single  .

Golly! Doesn't shift-ctrl space do an   character? It does in
Dreamweaver.... 8)

I don't know, as I only use the following key combos, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Alt+F4, Shift+Insert
