how to keep fixed width for the table

hi,

i am trying to fill a 2-columns table with content but I am having one hell of a time maintaining both of the columns at the same width (50%-50%).

every time I type something into one column that is longer than what is typed into the other one, the column just expands itself "stealing" width from the other column until it gets almost 100% wide. This really makes me angry.

anyone knows how to make the god damn columns stay fixed regardless of what and how much i type within each of them?

please! I can't stand it anymore

  I have no URL yet friend. I am trying to create a simple squeeze page but this table is driving me nuts with its auto expanding feature (or whatever it is)

  Yaaay! It WORKED
  
  But not with that code. The correct code was "width: 50%"
  
  Anyway, thanks for putting an end to 2 hours of hate and frustrations
