John, please. You asked for a new feature that already exists, and when corrected immediately reported that it doesn't work and isn't used, despite the fact that it does and is. You even hid behind (no joke) a grammar excuse (as if "colspan" and "rowspan" are so different that one couldn't possibly be an example of the other, or that you couldn't think to grep for just "span"). When told that the core of the "columns too small" problem was your use of an explicit width and height, you bizarrely claimed that it wasn't, in clear contradiction to reality. At any of those steps, an appropriate response might have plausibly included the phrase "thank you", or at least "OK, but...". Instead, it's been one one redirection after another. I tell you one thing (*correct* advice, it should be noted) and am immediately hit back with a counterclaim. Basically, you've been a jerk from the beginning to end of this process and frankly I don't really want to work with you. Your contributions aren't valuable enough to be worth the emotional effort. Some jerks can prosper in collaborative projects because of the utility of their work (c.f. Melchior, Mathias, maybe me if I still count as a core developer). You aren't in that league, honestly, and you might find that a little humility would produce better service. But, all that being said: yes, you found a bug. The spans-are-too-wide problem* is caused by a sign bug when calculating the "extra" amount to distribute between spanned cells. Fixed in CVS. Andy * As distinct from the layout-is-too-narrow problem you reported earlier, or the "there are no spans" non-problem you originally reported. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
