I'm currently working with code that has a table based layout. It's also
templated such that peices of a page are in seperate physical files. Its
difficult for me to do things like "widen" a column because the width of
the column is specified 3 or 4 times, like this (pseudo-code):
table width=200px
cell width=200px
table width=200px
div width=200px
...and so on.
Now it seems that the innermost width takes precedence. So that if the
outermost table width were to be changed to 100px, the rendering would
not change.
So I guess I have two questions: first, is it true that the innermost
width always takes precedence, or is there a more subtle rule that my
tests have not revealed? Second, what is the best policy to specify
widths to avoid redundancy - specify only the innermost width, or only
the outermost width?
Thanks!
