I have created a template with a table on the left side containing one column
and several rows. This is for category selection. The template also has an
editable region right next to it on the right. When I attach the template to
a page and the data in the editable region is longer than the text box on the
left it stretches the heights of the rows on the left. Is there a way I can
"lock" in the table so if the editable region is longer it does not stretch
the table?
 
Use a nested table in the left column.

Make the layout table a single row, two column table. Insert a new
table in the left cell. Place your category list in the new table. If
you need multiple rows in the right cell then again place a new table
for the content. In code view it will be similar to:

<table>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<!-- categories go here -->
<table>
<tr>
<td>Category 1</td>
</tr><tr>
<td>Category 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<!-- Page content goes here -->
<!-- Optional -->
<table?
<tr>
<td>blah blah</td>
</tr><tr>
<td>more blah's</td>
</tr>
<table>
<!-- End Optional -->
</td>
</tr>
</table>
