TROUBLE WITH MAX-LENGTH
code:
td {word-wrap:break-word; max-width:8ch;font-family:Courier New}
red {color:red}
<table>
<tr><td> <td>♠<span contenteditable="true" id='NS' spellcheck="false"></span>
<br><red>♥<span contenteditable="true" id='NH' spellcheck="false"></span></red></td></tr></table>
works fine in try-it editor, but fails in my HTML. Will upload HTML if I can

Your question refers to max-length but I'm not sure how that relates to your code.
If you meant max-width and the problem is that a table cell doesn't comply with set dimensions, you need to override the default "stretch-to-fit" behavior of tables by adding this to your CSS:
table {
table-layout: fixed;
}

Will be long, but here goes:
table {maximum-width:2.5in; border-collapse: collapse; margin:auto;
border:1px solid black}}
td {word-wrap:break-word; max-width:8ch;}
body {font-family:Courier New; font-size:10pt;}
<table>
<colgroup><col span='3' style="width:.8in;max-width:.8in"></colgroup>

Try this for a table and td elements:
table { display:inline-block; max-width:2.5in; border-collapse: collapse; margin:auto; border:1px solid black}
td {word-wrap:break-word; max-width:1in;}
