All you need to know is that column boundaries extend straight from top to bottom -- they do not move (CSS notwithstanding). So you can have: +-------+-------+-------+ | =1 | =1 | =1 | (33%, 34%, 33%) +-------+-------+-------+ | =1 | =2 | (33%, 67%) +-------+-------+-------+ | =1 | =1 | =1 | +-------+-------+-------+ but you can NOT have: +-------+-------+-------+ | =1 | =1 | =1 | +-------+---+---+-------+ | =1.5 | =1.5 | <--no no no, sorry, can't do that! +-------+---+---+-------+ | =1 | =1 | =1 | +-------+-------+-------+ unless you actually do it like this: +-------+---+---+-------+ | =1 | =2 | =1 | (33%, 17%+17%=34%, 33%) +-------+---+---+-------+ | =2 | =2 | (50%, 50%) +-------+---+---+-------+ | =1 | =2 | =1 | +-------+---+---+-------+ To put it another way, you can only have INTEGER colspans (and rowspans). -Walter
