title: How to increase column width size in datatables jquery
body: <p>My datatable getting the data from a spring controller and populating in datatables.
  Here the Message column in the datatable rows are displaying properly if the data contains spaces between words.</p>
  
  <p>If the Message Column contains big words that doesn't contain spaces then the Column is overflowing and going after the border of the table.I want to set the column width for datatable so that it will break after some text and display properly.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;table id="user"&gt;
  &lt;thead&gt;
  &lt;tr class="theader"&gt;
  
  &lt;th&gt;Order Id&lt;/th&gt;
  &lt;th&gt;Message&lt;/th&gt;
  &lt;th&gt;Date Created&lt;/th&gt;
  
  &lt;/tr&gt;
  &lt;/thead&gt;
  &lt;tbody&gt;
  &lt;/tbody&gt;
  &lt;/table&gt;
  
  &lt;script&gt;                                        
  $("#user").dataTable({
              "bFilter": false,
              "bAutoWidth": false,
              "bProcessing" : false,
              "bServerSide" : true,
              "sAjaxSource" : "./getLogDetails.cpm"
  });
  &lt;/script&gt;
  </code></pre>
