I got a problem with tables in LaTeX. I am using a pre-defined format from a conference, which makes a page consists of two columns. My table is too wide to be contained in one column, so it goes to the second column of the page and overlaps with text!
This is my code:
\begin{table}
\centering
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
Rule & Factor & Best Value & Delta_t & Delta_{do} & Comments \\
\hline
\multirow{3}{c}{Diagonal Dominance} & Line Angle & 45 & 15 & 30 & The angle between the prominent line of the object and
the diagonal lines \\ % TODO: What object? Make sure it is clear.
& Line Distance & 0 & 0.25 & 1 & The distance, in screen coordinates, from the
prominent line of the object to the diagonal lines. \\ % TODO: Need to define screen coordinates
& Corner Distances & 0 & 0.1 & 0.7 & The distance, in screen coordinates, from the
end of the prominent line of the object to the corners of the screen. \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\caption{The factors of each rule and their parameters.}
\label{table:factors}
\end{table}
Thank you in advance for your help.

Generally, the starred version of floating environments are used to tell LaTeX to span two columns. So, something like:
\begin{table*}
% Table contents
\end{table*}
The same can be done with figures.
In place of tabular
, use tabularx
, for example:
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{|c|c|c|c|c|X|}
Sorry, @Rafid, I normally use memoir
, which includes it, so I forgot this bit:
\usepackage{tabularx}
