How to shrink width of all but one table cell (<td>)?
I have researched this and the solutions I have found, like this one use
table {
table-layout: auto;
}
However, I need
table {
table-layout:fixed;
width:100%;
}
because it is the only thing that works for wrapping text in one cell (Contact Message) which has a long message. See this. The other cells in that table are short words, but the columns are much wider than the actual word. So, how can I autofit those cells which contain less text but give maximum width to the Contact Message cell (it cannot be the last column) that has the long message. Note that I am also using the following:
.Main {
width: 95%;
overflow-x: hidden;
margin:0 auto;
}
where Main is the containing Div. See HTML below:
<div class="Main">
<table id="ContactTable" class="table table-striped">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Contact Name</th>
<th>Contact Email</th>
<th>Contact Phone</th>
<th>Contact Subject</th>
<th>Contact Message</th>
<th>Contact Date</th>
<th>Action</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
