See the Width section of Help:Table.To summarize, max-width is the preferred way to limit widths on tables. It works on divs too. Note though that in both tables and divs there needs to be spaces in long lines of text or wikitext.
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)

A scrolling table in the sense of the vertical scrollbar for the whole page. When you scroll the page the table headers stay visible when the table goes beyond the top of the screen.
For complex tables, when a header spans two columns or rows, use ! scope="colgroup" colspan="2" | or ! scope="rowgroup" rowspan="2" | respectively to clearly identify the header as a column header of two columns or a row header of two rows.
This is text in column-2. {{col-end}} The table will have two columns, with column 1 twice (2×) the width of column 2. A border of 2px (1px width on each side) corresponds to a 5%. Therefore, with a 2px border, the width needs to be 95% for the table to fit within the screen. Since it's possible that some tables might not have a border ...
More template styles for tables: {{sticky header}} - Makes column headers stick to the top of the page while scrolling through table data. {} - moves the sorting arrows under the headers. {{row hover highlight}} - adds row hover highlighting, and option for white background. {{static row numbers}} - adds a column of row numbers to a table.
Note, in the above example, how the column-spacer of the 2nd column is set to only 9 spaces (compared to 13 on column 1), due to the text entries being longer words in column 2. In general, a set of 3 columns can each be spaced between 9-23 spaces apart, depending on wider column-spacers for shorter words in each column.
A table cell is one grouping within a chart table used for storing information or data. Cells are grouped horizontally (rows of cells) and vertically (columns of cells). Each cell contains information relating to the combination of the row and column headings it is collinear
