How to fix height of TR?

Question

Is it possible to fix the height of a row (tr) on a table?

The problem appears when I shrink the window of the browser, some rows start playing around, and I can not

Answer 1

Tables are iffy (at least, in IE) when it comes to fixing heights and not wrapping text. I think you'll find that the only solution is to put the text inside a div element, like so:

td.container > div {
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    overflow:hidden;
}
td.container {
    height: 20px;
}

    

        

            
This is a long line of text designed not to wrap 
                 when the container becomes too small.
        
    

This way, the div's height is that of the containing cell and the text cannot grow the div, keeping the cell/row the same height no matter what the window size is.
