When using html tables and css. I have used rowspan=2 to combine to rows

  • 0

When using html tables and css. I have used rowspan="2" to combine to rows together, but when i use background in the css, its not going right to the edges of the table.

Where am i going wrong? This is a really simple question i know.

Then the CSS is

#messages th{
    background-color:#f0f0f0;
    color: #FF9912;
    font-size:14px;
    font-weight:bold;
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    border-right: solid 1px #666666;
}

#messages td{
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    font-size: 14px;
}

    I’m just guessing here, but aren’t you coloring only the cells of the table, and not the spacing between the cells?
