Bootstrap Table Column Width And Word-Break Not Working Using Data-Width Attribute

Hello All,
One of the issue that I had with Bootstrap Tables by Wenzhixin is that you can't set the width directly using data-width attribute given the code below.

<th data-field="description" data-sortable="true" data-searchable="true" data-width="350px">Description</th>

After doing some research and experiments, the solution that worked for me is to set the Bootstrap Table table-layout style to fixed.
Bootstrap Table CSS

#tblEmployeeDependents{
   table-layout: fixed;
}

And use data-class attribute instead of data-width property to set the column width.
HTML Code

<th data-field="description" data-sortable="true" data-searchable="true"  data-class="tdDescription">Description</th>

Data-Class CSS Style

.tdDescription {   
   width: 350px;
   word-break: break-word;
}
