Re: Question on how to get fixed sized columns in a Table

I won't be able to apply the same tableColumn styleClass attribute to
the header -- it's not even the same HTML element. However, I can modify
the table to ensure the same tableColumn width attribute is used for the
header. Unfortunately, you won't see that unless you're willing to take
a 4.2 milestone build?
