[support] I just want a simple table

[Alexis Rengifo]

I know this is not the better solution but quick

   1. Force that table with with css
   2. Add it a class attributte like: class='table200width'
   3. Then add the rule in your css like: .table.table200width {
   width:200px !important}

Let me know if it helped you
