Yeah, MindBridge and I tried doing that a while back....The only blocker for
not being able to do it in pure css was that there was a requirement that
some people can't have the <th> text break up onto multiple lines.
If the css limitation still prevents this, I'm sure a little js could
satisfy this requirement, though I'm thinking more and more that this is a
very odd requirement, and that since (I'm boldly guessing here) probably 80%
of the use cases don't have enough text in their th's to warrent worrying
about line breaks (esp since you can control the min width of each th
individually) it doesn't seem fair to make 80-90% of people work aronud what
is only a 10% use case.
Or am I wrong?
