Percentage based Table widths not supported?

  • Hello, great plugin thank you. It seems like percentage based widths for tables are not supported? It appears the plugin tries to be helpful by calculating cell widths in pixels automatically. That’s probably nice for some people, but today’s responsive web is much more percentage based than pixel when it pertains to widths.

    Please consider adding percentage based widths. Thanks again!

    Generally tables in HTML are not responsive. Even when the widths are not set. Setting widths as percentage may work in some cases with tables that have one or two columns, but not for larger tables.

    This depends on the TinyMCE editor project, but not sure it is a good idea. Better no avoid tables when possible.

    Andrew Ozz, with all due respect – you are wrong. tables can have percentage widths, and it is actually a better way than to have widths set in pixels. And it works brilliantly for large tables with plenty of columns. As a matter of fact, it works better to have td:s with 20% added, than 200px.
