    <p>It's possible that this might work, but it might prove to be a bit of a nuisance at some point in the future (if not immediately).</p> <pre><code>&lt;style&gt; tbody td span {display: inline-block; width: 10em; /* this is the nuisance part, as you'll have to define a particular width, and I assume -without testing- that any percent widths would be relative to the containing `&lt;td&gt;`, not the `&lt;tr&gt;` or `&lt;table&gt;` */ overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; } &lt;/style&gt; ... &lt;table&gt; &lt;thead&gt;...&lt;/thead&gt; &lt;tfoot&gt;...&lt;/tfoot&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;span title="some text"&gt;some text&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;span title="some more text"&gt;some more text&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;span title="yet more text"&gt;yet more text&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt; &lt;/table&gt; </code></pre> <p>The rationale for the <code>span</code> is that, as pointed out by others, a <code>&lt;td&gt;</code> will typically expand to accommodate the content, whereas a <code>&lt;span&gt;</code> can be given -and expected to keep- a set width; the <code>overflow: hidden</code> is intended to, but might not, hide what would otherwise cause the <code>&lt;td&gt;</code> to expand.</p> <p>I'd recommend using the <code>title</code> property of the span to show the text that's present (or clipped) in the visual cell, so that the text's still available (and if you don't want/need people to see it, then why have it in the first place, I guess...).</p> <p>Also, if you define a width for the <code>td {...}</code> the td will expand (or potentially contract, but I doubt it) to fill its implied width (as I see it this seems to be <code>table-width/number-of-cells</code>), a specified table-width doesn't seem to create the same issue.</p> <p>The downside is additional markup used for presentation.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
