[Plugin: WP-Table Reloaded] Colspan not working in IE 7

Hi,

it might be because of some invalid HTML on the page, I would not be surprised, if IE 7 breaks due to that.

It seems that you don’t have an empty line between the text and the following Shortcode. Can you try inserting an empty line? That should lead to a slightly different HTML code which might work.

Thanks for your prompt reply, sorry to sound thick but
You talk about introducing an empty line and
I am not sure how to do this currently in the table I have these two lines.

Hi,

no, I don’t mean a line within the table, but within the page where you have entered the Shortcode for the table.

So, after

ps web design is a small family business based in Market Harborough, Leicestershire.

and before

[table id=1 /]

you should have an empty line.

OK sorry I have now done this but still does not work…please can you suggest anything else?

Hi,

ah ok. The problem might be related to the custom cell width that you have set using the CSS.
It seems that in IE 7 that width takes a higher precedence that the colspanning.

Can you remove the

.wp-table-reloaded .column-1 {
width: 300px;
}

and the

wp-table-reloaded .column-1 {
width: 20px;
}

from the “Custom CSS”? (Also: The second piece of code is missing a . at the beginning, so it would never work actually and is not necessary.)

You should still get your desired column widths due to the width of the images in the left column.

Best wishes,
Tobias

I will try this when I get home from work later on tonight and let you know outcome. Many thanks for your help
