 * Hi Mattias,
 * Here I am, again, having problems setting column width in a table…
    I’ve been
   going through former threads I could find, trying to adapt the padding, using%
   instead of px, adapting the physical width of the text… nothing seemed to do 
   anything… at all!
 * So I checked if I was trying to influence the right table id, but there everything
   seems fine as well.
 * So I hope you can help me with this one!
 * here’s the page with the table:
    [http://www.heelhulpje.nl/?page_id=3651](http://www.heelhulpje.nl/?page_id=3651)
 * (I need first and second column to have less space inbetween, and I the third
   and fourth to have the same width)
 * Probably (hopefully) it’s something really dumn and silly 🙂

 * My oh my, of course I didn’t mean Mattias!! I meant Tobias! Sorry for that, now
   I feel even more clumsy :/
 * The problem is still not solved, alas…

 * Solved!! Found your answer about the long URL… adapted the code as you told and
   it worked 🙂

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
    (And no worries about the name,
   that’s no problem 🙂 )
 * Yes, this was caused by the long URLs then. Good to hear that you found the solution!
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias
