Yeah, i can see that width in pixels would mess things up.

But aren't percentages taken of the width allocated to the table in which they appear, not to the whole page?

In which case, only allowing percentages -- {cell:width} producing </TD><TD WIDTH="width%"> -- would be safe, yes?

Or, I suppose, skip width altogether, and just let the html browser decide how to distributed the items. More limiting for the user, but safer.


Anyway, I imagine most uses would be something like this, so it wouldn't much matter generally:


I can see the advantage, as SoCal suggests, of having tables 'isolated' in a separate document, but I imagine that starting to get fairly unwieldy in practice, since I expect users would want "tabling" mainly for convenient multi-column formatting of portions of their items, and spreading the information and text of a single document through several items could get cumbersome.
