Is there a way to fix table widths within a table?

The responsive/fixed feature does not work when you are working on a table within a table.

I created a user macro a few years ago that will let you do some stuff with tables. One of the features is setting column widths. Here is the user macro. I had to split the template into two parts as you can only have a max of 20,000 characters in an answer. So, just append the second part of the template to the first part when you create the user macro.

Macro Name:
advanced_tables

Macro Title:
Advanced Tables

Macro Body Processing:
Rendered

Template Part 1:

## Developed by: Davin Studer
## Date created: 04/30/2014

## @param ID:title=Table ID|type=string|required=false|desc=Provide a unique id (no spaces).
## @param AutoNumber:title=Autonumber Rows|type=boolean|desc=This will autonumber the rows in the table that are not heading rows.|default=false
## @param HeadingReset:title=Reset Count|type=boolean|desc=This will reset the count each time a heading row is encountered. (only applicable if Autonumber Rows is checked)|default=false
## @param DisableSorting:title=Disable Sorting|type=boolean|desc=This will disable row sorting.|default=false
## @param Zebra:title=Zebra Table|type=boolean|desc=This will alternate the color of the table's rows.|default=false
## @param ZOdd:title=Zebra Color Odd Rows|type=string|required=false|desc=Hex color code for the odd zebra rows. (default #E0F0FF)
## @param ZEven:title=Zebra Color Even Rows|type=string|required=false|desc=Hex color code for the even zebra rows. (default #FFFFFF)
## @param RowHover:title=Row Hover Color|type=string|required=false|desc=Hex color code to use for hovering over a row.
## @param NoScroll:title=No Table Scroll|type=boolean|desc=This will turn off the scroll bat that is at the bottom of the table in favor of one always at the bottom of the page. This is useful for tables that are wider than the page.|default=false
## @param Class:title=CSS Class|type=string|required=false|desc=This will assign a css class to the table.
## @param Width:title=Table Width|type=string|required=false|desc=This will set the width of the table. Acceptable values are in % or px or auto.
## @param ColWidth:title=Column Widths|type=string|required=false|desc=Use a comma separated list of column widths for the table. Acceptable values are in % or px or auto.
