html table, variable width columns plus a floating width column -


i have table 4 columns. first 3 columns should take space need display data / ui control placed in them, whereas fourth column should take remaining space. don't know while creating table widths first 3 columns should be, can't put "width" value in there.

if set fourth column 100% width, squishes first 3 columns much; if there drop down list ("select" in html terms) in 1 of columns, last column force become somewhere around 20 pixels wide, whereas should wide option element has longest text in menu.

other rows in table cells span multiple columns, think i'm stuck using table element (as opposed divs etc)

any ideas? ie6 not supported site whatever works in firefox / chrome should good.

try putting width:1%; white-space:nowrap; in first 3 columns , leave fourth without width
