Let's look at an example. The table below has six td cells across. Each cell is 50pixels. Let's say we want the first row of our table to hold the Title and we'll need 100 pixels for it. That means we need to span two cells; and we'll span the center two cells to put it in the middle.
You can do more than one colspan in a table and in fact you can do more than one in a row. Here's an example of several in a table.
Now let's apply colspan to gradtables. Why you ask? Because it gives you more flexibility in your table creations. The more ways to manipulate tables the more flexible the art. We'll start with our same six celled table but this time it's gradtables. I've left a one border on this so you can see the six separate cells. So once again lets colspan the center two cells: Here's another example with no border and an additional colspan. Code Here
