What are you trying to get it to do?
do you want the words span to land exactly on top of one another?
If you are trying to get span to land on top of one another you are going to
have to use a style sheet to make sure that the fonts and the breaks are
exactly the same size.

Subject: overlapped span
Hi,
I was trying to create different kind of html tests, that includes
really incorrect html for testing a browser. And I got the following,
and it appears that neither Netscape nor MSIE can render this html
correctly.
<html><body>
<table><tr><td>left<br>up</td>
<td rowspan=2>row<br>span<br>row<br>span<br></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan=2>col span</td></tr>
</table>
</body></html>
So, I got sort of technical question - how a browser should handle
this cases ? I mean is there any well-known algorithm for doing this ?
I didn't try Amaya, though.
So, if you can give some help or suggestions - I would really
appreciate it.
Thanx,
Pawel.
