HTML table: column width percentage

Question

To fix width, you can use table-layout:fixed; .

You may also want to use the colgroup and col tags to assign at once width and bg to your columns.

table {
  width: 100%;
  table-layout: fixed;
}
.ten {
  width: 10%;
  background: tomato;
}
.twenty {
  width: 20%;
  background: turquoise
}
/* see me */
td {
  border: solid;
}
/* play with bg cells and cols ? */

tr:nth-child(even) :nth-child(odd) {
  background:rgba(100,255,50,0.3);
  }
tr:nth-child(odd) :nth-child(even) {
  background:rgba(255,255,255,0.3);
  }

<table>
  <colgroup>
    <col class="ten" />
