title: Table cell width in HTML email does not correspond to width set in HTML or CSS
body: <p>I'm trying to code an HTML email newsletter by hand (using MailChimp). It's supposed to look similar to viastedebouw.nl/newsflash/2013-06/ which was created with an app (and therefore does not have very nice looking code).</p>
  
  <p>The problem that I'm having is that one of the table cells has a width set in HTML <strong>and</strong> CSS, but it does not correspond to either. The code is:</p>
  
  <p>HTML</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;td width="140" class="logo"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>CSS</p>
  
  <pre><code>.logo { width: 140px; height: 140px; }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, what ends up happening is that the logo td is 614px wide, for some reason, as illustrated by this screenshot: </p>

  <p>Edit: I'm now realizing I got the entire table wrong in the first place, d'oh! Most rows have 1 cell, but some have 2. I forgot to add <code>colspan="2"</code> to the cells that span the entire width of the table.</p>
