You can declare this, BUT ...
The table cell will extend in width to the widest word and from there on the
behaviour will vary with the browser:
Limiting the width to 1 pixel will result in:
* IE5.5 will display exactly one word per line.
* Netscape 6.2 will fit as many words into one line as possible, but only
within the space given by the length of the longest word.
* Opera 6.0 is same as Netscape 6.2.
I have attached a small HTML file, which you may want to throw at your
favourite browser. ;-)
Assuming that you want to achieve a well defined layout, I wouldn't expect
you to do something like that.
Habe phun!
