AFAICT you could have an arbitrary number up to the width or height of the table, whichever is smaller, by combining row- and colspans - e.g. with 3 ([v]aligns just to emphasize the overlapping):
<table border=1><tbody> <tr><td>R1C1</td><td>R1C2</td><td rowspan=3 valign=bottom>\\\\\\</td></tr> <tr><td>R2C1</td><td rowspan=2 colspan=2 align=right valign=bottom>//////</td></tr> <tr><td colspan=3 align=right>----</td></tr> </tbody></table> - Roland On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 8:58 AM, Fady Samuel <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi David, > > Just so I'm certain, there's no way for more than two cells to overlap in a > single grid slot, is there? > > Thanks, > > Fady Samuel > > > On Thu, May 20, 2010 at 4:43 PM, David Hyatt <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On May 20, 2010, at 3:38 PM, Fady Samuel wrote: >> >> > So what are the rules for stacking here? do the cells stack in the order >> in which they appear in the HTML? >> > >> >> Correct, although note that backgrounds paint behind foregrounds, and hit >> testing works the same way, so it's not as simple as saying that cell 7 is >> always above cell 5.
