How do I stop table cell wrapping?
Guys is there a way to stop cells in a table wrapping the text to the next
line and simply cutting the data if it's longer than the cell width? I would
think there may be some kind of attribute to do this?

You can do that whith the attribute "wrap-option" set to "no-wrap" like this
:
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block wrap-option="no-wrap">
....
</fo:block>
<fo:table-cell>

Yes, it works. However, if the content is too large for the
cell, it will visibly overflow into whatever is further in
inline progression direction (read: table cells to the right).
The standard provides the property overflow="hidden" (not
="clip", sorry) to clip the overflowing content, and this
doesn't work in FOP, at least for rendering PDF.

I seem to recall that the fo:block wrap-option="wrap | no-wrap" attribute
works in cells.

You probably want to use the overflow="clip" property too,
unfortunately, it isn't implemented yet in FOP. You'll have
to clip at the XSLT level. There are various apporaches in
the XSL list archive.
