css skin - DataGrid_Container class not staying in container 

I created a 3-column css-only (table-less) skin & some containers, and it looks great. The only problem - the User Accounts, Vendors - anything that uses the DataGrid_Container class - does not stay within the confines of my container.

I can post some markup, but I wasn't sure if I should post my skin/css or container/css? Or perhaps this is a known issue that someone can help me with off the top of their head?

Re: css skin - DataGrid_Container class not staying in container 

One of the challanges with using XHTML/CSS approach in skinning is to prevent HTML table overflowing outside the "confined area". If you could post a link to your demo site, I'll be happy to take a look and help to troubleshoot.

Re: css skin - DataGrid_Container class not staying in container 

I typically set my div tags that have a set/forced area I want to maintain IE static size to have overflow:scroll. This way things will scroll when they overflow. Note doesnt always work well though cause of the way modules end up working out. I have seen some modules where they overflow their own module's boundaries. I don't get a scrollbar cause the boundary of the module is within the container. Its a wierd quirk. Nor does the div's always like to go into scroll mode, but on average it should solve the issue 90% of the time.

Problem is with the HTML table displays inside a div, and how to manage it properly. Here is good post about it.

Thanks for the offer Cuong, but this issue is only visible (so far) when working with user accounts, vendors, etc. - stuff you have to be logged in as an admin for. I read that article and would like to experiment, but where exactly am I putting "table-layout:fixed" - on one of my skin or container divs that surround that table? Because I can't get at the table CSS - DNN is writing that.
