Hello,
I would like to create a table with fixed width for cells (ex: 500px).
However, the cells widen over the entire width of the (responsive) page, which I do not want.
I tried to replace Width with Max-Width, but that doesn't change anything.
How to do it?

Please post a link to an example on your site.

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

Here is the link (this is a test site) :

I would like each column to measure only 240 px, and not 50% of the width of the page because I want to do like a card

In yout template stylesheet - templates/test-1/css/template.css the following css rule is causing the issue:
/* table default style */
table {
width: 100%;
margin-bottom: 18px;
}Override this in the user.css (or custom.css) file with the following:
/* table default style */
table {
max-width: 100%;

Thank you very much for your help.
Unfortunately, that hasn't changed anything.
On the other hand, I found the solution: just indicate the total size in pixels for the table.
It's very silly, but I hadn't thought about it ;-)
