CSS Equivalent of Table Rowspan with Fluid Height
- by Gabe
I'm trying to accomplish the following using CSS:
<table border="1" width="300px">
<tr>
<td rowspan="2">This row should equal the height (no fixed-height allowed) of the 2 rows sitting to the right.</td>
<td>Here is some sample text. And some additional sample text.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Here is some sample text. And some additional sample text.</td>
</tr>
</table>
The examples I've seen for accomplishing this utilize fixed heights or allow the content to wrap around the left column. Is there an elegant way to accomplish this using CSS?
