Issue on Chrome

    We have been using the tablepress plugin for a while now and it’s great.

    However since Chrome updated to the latest version on Tuesday our tables are no longer being contained within the layout of the page.

    We have a div on the page containing all content with a width of 960px. The tablepress width has been set to 100% so should all be the same width of 960px on that page. However our tablepress tables (we have multiple) now seem to extend beyond this width somehow and looks like it ranges from 980px to 1080px in width. It works fine in IE and Firefox but not Chrome.

    When you inspect element in Chrome, the tablepress ID and code all works normal with no errors but the tables keep displaying beyond the parent divs set width. Any ideas of how to get around this?

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!

    Yeah sure, sorry about that. The link is https://www.youtrain.com/course-calendar/

    Chrome version is 44.0.2403.89 m. It seems to work in older versions of Chrome though. It also works fine in IE and Firefox.

    Cheers.

    Hi,

    thanks for the link! I can confirm this behavior on the same version of Chrome on Linux. Unfortunately, I don’t have an older one for testing available.

    I have no clue why this is happening, so that I assume that Chrome somehow changed its algorithms to determine the width of the columns and/or the table.
    It could be possible that this is reverted, once the developers see that it apparently can break tables.

    A work around that you could try would be to manually set column widths, via e.g. https://tablepress.org/faq/column-widths/

    Okay, thanks very much.

    We will investigate set column widths but hopefully the developers fix the issue that breaks the tables!

    Thanks again.

    Hi,

    yes, I also hope that! Usually, they are pretty quick with this.

    Regardless, setting column widths on your tables could help to create a uniform sizing of the tables on your site.

    Best wishes,

    P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!

    We have changed the first column to a set width as this is the one that contains the most info and it seems to have fixed the tables for now.

    .tablepress td.column-1 {
    width: 120px;
    }

    A quick fix for now. Cheers.
    Will rate the plugin ow too.

    Hi,

    yes, that should already have a great impact ?? Good to hear that you found that as a solution!

    And thanks for the rating, I really appreciate it!

    Best wishes,
    Tobias
