Spanning Columns and Rows
Unless you are familiar with HTML, you are probably not familiar with Column and Row Spanning. It can be a difficult concept for some, but is well worth spending the time to learn it.
You can specify that a certain table cell will span multiple columns or rows. In HTML, you must specify the number of cells it will span. In Dreamweaver, you are allowed to simply increase and decrease the span by one.
Here is an example of Column Spanning:
Standard 2 row, 3 column table:
Same table with the first cell given a Column Span of 1(increased once)
Same table with the first cell given a Column Span of 2 (increased twice)
As you can see, the top cell spanned the entire row.
Here is the same example for a Row Span:
The first cell of this table was given a Row Span of 1 (increased once).
This can be done easily. Click inside the cell you would like to span. In the case of the example, that would be the upper left cell. While your cursor is in there access the Table Menu and select Increase Row Span, or Increase Column Span.
If you decide to change your mind, you can decrease the span in the same fashion, by selecting Decrease Row Span or Decrease Column Span.
