Tables: Cell-Spacing Problem

Hey guys, I'm new to BraveNet free sites... Anyway, I'm working on my own, personal website [http://macmorrighan.bravehost.com/Occultique.html] when I recently ran into a problem I was hoping someone could help me with...

I'm trying to add a section for a home-based apothecarey business by adding all of the formulas I've created over the years--and had given to me by friends--by organizing them and aligning them nice and neatly in a table.

However, all seems well when I type the name, or title of each formula into the first row of cells. But, when I type the description into the second cell, it moves backwards towards the title--which is fine--but it doesn't stop until each word in any given title is only alotted he space of a single line.

But, what *I* want to do is to make the first row the width of the longest title (taking up the space of only a single line of "text"), with the description taking up the bulk of any other space, and taking up as many "lines" as possible". Ya' know what I mean? I've posted a link to my page so you can see what the problem is.

Basically, I want each row to look like the first one, for AC/DC Oil; but, as you can see, the first colum "shrank" so much that many of the titles for my formulas have been seperated at their natural breaks.

Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?

Take Care,
Wade

Re: Tables: Cell-Spacing Problem

Find the longest title, and replace the natural breaks with nonbreaking spaces:
Instead of
Cat's Knight Love
use
Cat's Knight Love

This should revent the breaks.
