colspan , how to ?

Hi,

thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

I’m not sure that I understand… Colspan has nothing to do with CSS. You’ll need to colspan on the table’s “Edit” screen (by using the buttons below the table).
Can you then please explain what you want to achieve with that CSS?

Regards,
Tobias

Hey, thanx for your Reply , i want to use the CSS to Design an Layout for my Bowling-Scoreboard.. i need to merge the First two Row into one big (like header) and couple more field from 2 to 1.

Maybe it’s not possible, that they reason, why i ask, to figure it out

Hi,

no, as mentioned, it is not possible to merge cells/rows with CSS (only with HTML). You should use the “colspan” and “rowspan” buttons on the table’s “Edit” screen.

Along these lines, I’m trying to “colspan” over 4 columns, but can’t get seem to include columns 3 and 4.

I’m trying to get the sentences starting “This is our normal schedule” to display beneath the whole table, but I can only seem to get columns 1 and 2 to join.

Actually, you’ve had a 4-columns-colspan already. It seems like only 1 and 2 columns joined because your text is aligned to left. Try NOT to break the line between the word “Calendar” and “for”.

Or, you can use the following instead:

This is our normal schedule. Please check our Calendar for special services and other meetings and activities.

Ah. The hazards of cut-and-paste, especially someone else’s text. Thanks for pointing out what should have been obvious, lonelicloud. ??

Sure. It happens. ??

P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!

Hi, Tobias,

It’s my pleasure to help on this great plugin! It’s hard to maintain such a plugin and give people specific answers in your spare time. I bet you must have worked too much hard to squeeze a little ‘spare time’. So, it should be me to say thanks, for your great work on this!

Hi,

thanks! Yes, it’s sometimes hard to keep up with all the support questions, as my time is very limited. That’s why it’s really great to see that people like you are also helping out here! ?? Thanks!

Best wishes,
Tobias
