Examples

View live exampleThis example sets the SPAN attribute of the col object to two, which causes the col to span two columns. The text is right-aligned in these two columns.

<TABLE BORDER>
<COLGROUP>
<COL SPAN=2 ALIGN=RIGHT>
<COL ALIGN=LEFT>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>This is the first column in the group, and it is 
    right-aligned.</TD>
<TD>This is the second column in the group, and it is 
    right-aligned.</TD>
<TD>This is the third column in the group, and it is 
    left-aligned.</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

Notes

Remarks

The span property is ignored when set on the colGroup element and colGroup contains one or more col elements. The span property provides a more convenient way of grouping columns without having to specify col objects.
