Probably not, and MochiKit already has a section of code that works
around this IE retardedness. Plus, if you just rename your colspan
attribute to be the camelCased version (i.e. "colSpan") then Firefox
and Safari will break on your code.
A really cheesy workaround is to specify both attributes, like this:
var td = TD({'align':'center','colspan':'4','colSpan':'4'},....);
It's worth noting that IE 7.0 is just as broken as IE 6.0 in this
regard.
