title: Set width for JSF column header in fixed-size table
body: <p>I have a JSF datatable with table-layout:fixed, where I'm trying to set percentage based width for each column. I figured that if i add a width attribute to the header in IE, then it works as expected. However, I cant figure out how to add this width attribute in the code. 
  I have added an attribute inside the facet header, but that didnt work. It didnt work setting it inside the column tag either.</p>
  
  <p>If anyone could help me out it would be appreciated.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;h:column&gt;
       &lt;f:facet name="header"&gt;
           &lt;h:outputText 
               value="#{messageSource['tasks.headline.task']}" /&gt;
               &lt;f:attribute name="width" value="20%"/&gt;
       &lt;/f:facet&gt;
       &lt;t:commandLink id="lookAtTask" action="lookAtTask"&gt;
           &lt;t:updateActionListener property="#{flowScope.localTask}"
               value="#{data.task}" /&gt;
           &lt;h:graphicImage url="/images/icon_properties_16x16.gif"
               alt="#{messageSource['tasks.headline.task']}" /&gt;
       &lt;/t:commandLink&gt;
  &lt;/h:column&gt;
  </code></pre>
