I'm trying to write a table so that it doesn't expand to the full width of the page. Below is what I have so far, but even though the first columns seem to respect the "width" parameter, the last column expands to the end of the page.
All results I found use CSS, but I am not sure how to do that. I don't know if it's relevant, but I'm writing a Joomla! article.
<table class="zebra" width="300">
<thead>
<tr>
<th style="text-align: left;" width="100">title 1</th>
<th style="text-align: center;" width="100">title 2</th>
<th style="text-align: center;" width="100">title 3</th></tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr class="odd">
<td style="text-align: left;" width="100">content 1</td>
<td style="text-align: center;" width="100">content 2</td>
<td style="text-align: center;" width="100">content 3</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
345
To set the table width in HTML, use the style attribute. The style attribute specifies an inline style for an element. The attribute is used with the HTML <table> tag, with the CSS property width.
Using width attribute: The <td> tag has width attribute to control the width of a particular column. By assigning a numeric value to this attribute between 0 to 100 in terms of percentage(or you can use pixel format). We can restrict the column width up to that much percentage of the table's total width.
<table class="zebra" style="max-width:300px;">
