Skip to ContentProfile image of tonymbofanaSubmitted by tonymbofanaover 12 yearsHow do you incorporate the colspan property into the CSS file?

I was designing a table and i wished to style my header in the table using CSS. Instead of using the attribute colspan=”4” (my table has 4 columns by the way) directly in the html document, i wanted to use id =”header”. However, it seems the colspan property is not reading the 4 columns want and just effectively applying to 1 column.

CSS file: tonito.css

#header { font-size: 15; font-family: Arial; color: Brown; colspan=4;

}

There is small ongoing argument in the HTML community whether a column’s span is considered style (CSS) or structure (HTML). In previous versions of CSS, there was no standard way to set the span of a column, although browsers did support their own custom css attribute (for example, -ms-column-span for IE).

In order to make sure it works on all browsers, you should use all of these together within your selector:

column-span: 4; /* W3C */ -webkit-column-span: 4; /* Safari & Chrome */ -moz-column-span: 4; /* Firefox */ -ms-column-span: 4; /* Internet Explorer */ -o-column-span: 4; /* Opera */

However, this will only work in current generation browsers. I would suggest not setting the colspan in CSS, but the choice is yours.
