reg html tables

Hello
I am pasting a part of my code below. With this table, I am able to set the width to 810 pixels, which on opening in the browser is just perfect.

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
cellk { 
font-family:Arial;
 
color: #ffffff; 
 
font-size: 12px; 
 
background: #666666;
 
font-weight: bold;
 
line-height: 18px;
 
padding-left:10px;}

cellte {
font-family:Arial;
 
color: #000000; 
 
font-size: 12px; 
 
background: #e7e7e7;
 
line-height: 18px;
 
padding-left:5px;}
</style>
</head>

<body>
<table width="820" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1">
<tbody>
 
<tr>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">ID</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Account</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Username</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Secret</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Mobil</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Phone</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">SIP</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">MAC</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">LocalAP</td>
</tr>                                                    
 
<tr>
 
<tr>
<td colspan="9"><img src="" alt="" border="0" height="12" width="810"></td>
</tr>
 
<td class="cellte">id</td>    
<td class="cellte">account</td>
<td class="cellte">username</td>
<td class="cellte">secret</td>
<td class="cellte">mobil</td>                                                        
<td class="cellte">phone</td>
<td class="cellte">sip</td>                  
<td class="cellte">mac</td>
<td class="cellte">localAP</td>
                  
</tr> 
               
</tbody>
</table>‬
</body>
</html>

When i instead insert input text fields into the table in the place of the first normal row, the fields set themselves to be equally fixed and go beyond my desired width.

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
cellk { 
font-family:Arial;
 
color: #ffffff; 
 
font-size: 12px; 
 
background: #666666;
 
font-weight: bold;
 
line-height: 18px;
 
padding-left:10px;}

cellte {
font-family:Arial;
 
color: #000000; 
 
font-size: 12px; 
 
background: #e7e7e7;
 
line-height: 18px;
 
padding-left:5px;}
</style>
</head>
 
<body>
<table width="820" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1">
<tbody>
 
<tr>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">ID</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Account</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Username</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Secret</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Mobil</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">Phone</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">SIP</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">MAC</td>
<td rowspan="2" class="cellk">LocalAP</td>
</tr>
 
<tr>
 
<tr>
<td colspan="9"><img src="" alt="" border="0" height="12" width="810"></td>
</tr>
 
<td class="cellte">id</td>
<td class="cellte">account</td>                                                        
<td class="cellte">username</td>
<td><input type="text" name="editsecret" value="secret"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="editMobil" value="Mobil"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="editPHONE" value="PHONE"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="editSIP" value="SIP"></td>                                                        
<td><input type="text" name="editMAC" value="MAC"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="editLocalAP" value="localAP"></td>
</tr> 
 
</tbody>
</table>‬
</body>
</html>

Can you kindly guide me further on how this can be avoided??

Thanks in advance

set your text fields widths to be smaller.
