Default Fix table column width??

On my page, a user inputs data and the page generates a new page consisting of a table with data that the user inputed. However, when the data is too big for the cell that contains it, the cell grows beyond its specified width, instead of making a new line.

Is there an attribute or CSS overflow something-or-other that might help me?

Thanks ahead of time

Snib
