I want to prevent the user from horizontally resizing the window beyond a certain width because (if I didn't) anything to the right of my two tables would be a a solid gray color of nothing. 

So, without the functionality that I want, if the user resizes the window it will look somthing like this exaggerated example:

[][]||||||

Where I represent a table with [] and gray solid areas are represented by |.

The code that I've, unsuccessfully, tried to use is similar to the code here:
