For years in HTML, a table has always forced an implicit line-wrap (or line-break). So, to keep a table within a line, the workaround is to put the whole line into a table, then embed a table within a table, using the outer table to force the whole line to stay together. Consider the following examples: Wikicode (showing table forces line-break)

As the effect is achieved by drawing a diagonal line across the cell, the two headers are still part of the same cell and can easily overrun the line. A remedy is to pad the headers with non-breaking spaces ( ), line breaks (<br />), and/or CSS (escape = signs as {{=}}), as in the example above. The template user is responsible for ...
For table markup, it can be applied to whole tables, table captions, table rows, and individual cells. CSS specificity in relation to content should be considered since applying it to a row could affect all that row's cells and applying it to a table could affect all the table's cells and caption, where styles closer to the content can override ...
It specifies where it would be OK to add a line-break where a word is too long, or it is perceived that the browser will break a line at the wrong place. Whether the line actually breaks is then left up to the browser. The break will look like a space - see soft hyphen below when it would be more appropriate to break the word or line using a ...
A style element may be added to apply to the entire table, to all the cells § in a row or § column, or just to individual cells in the table. To add style to the entire table, add the style element to the § Begin-table delimiter line at the top of the table.
To add an extra row into a table, you'll need to insert an extra row break and the same number of new cells as are in the other rows. The easiest way to do this in practice, is to duplicate an existing row by copying and pasting the markup. It's then just a matter of editing the cell contents.
The text in the cell is taken from the first parameter; {{yes | Sure}} would output "Sure" otherwise it defaults to "Yes". Most templates allow authors to override the default text in this way, some require text put after the template call and some also need a vertical bar in between: {{table cell template}} text or {{table cell template ...
