[thelist] Accessing table cell properties with CSS?

Ok, this is going to sound really backward (and I think I am barking
up the wrong tree) but - is there anyway to control the Width of a TD
with CSS? I cannot seem to do it. You might ask why...

I have a table row with 2 cells:

+-------+-----------------------+
+ blah  +      links here       +
+-------+-----------------------+

I am being forced to rewrite the second cell "links here" section,
using innerHTML - yes I know, ugly, brutal, not good - I have no
choice. The "blah" cell is set to a width of 298, the other cell has
no setting.

When I rewrite the second cell with the new links - I completely lose
the width of the "blah" cell - and I need it to stay at 298 or it
blows the whole look.

I figured maybe rewriting the TD width at the same time would solve
the problem, but I can't seem to do it. Any help or suggestions...

Tom
