A table cell is one grouping within a chart table used for storing information or data. Cells are grouped horizontally (rows of cells) and vertically (columns of cells). Each cell contains information relating to the combination of the row and column headings it is collinear with. In software design, table cells are a key component in HTML and ...
Colspan and rowspan. It is possible to create cells that stretch over two or more columns. For this, one uses |colspan=n | content. Similarly, one can create cells that stretch over two or more rows. This requires |rowspan=m | content. In the table code, one must leave out the cells that are covered by such a span. The resulting column- and row ...
If you use tables for two-dimensional graphics you might discover a "feature" in HTML that promotes grey hair. It can affect both rows and columns, depending on the use of either rowspan or colspan. In this 7-row table three cells have the height of 3 rows, but the total is 6 rows. Where is row 4? There is a row 5-4!
|+ Table caption adds the caption "Table caption" to the top of the table. A caption is optional, but recommended according to accessibility guidelines. |-adds a new row, which should be followed by the same number of cells found in other rows. Note, rowspan="2" and colspan="2" can be used on cells to span multiple rows and columns.
The wikitext must be correct. An incorrect rowspan organization can break sorting, cause weird table formatting, move data to the wrong column, etc. See examples below.

Most of these templates should not be used simply to produce a background color, use them according to their meaning. For example, {{yes}} makes a cell with ...
This also applies to other coding approaches, such as divs with CSS styling, or rowspan and colspan HTML cell attributes. Nesting data tables with header cells also makes it difficult for assistive readers to parse them sensibly, and should be avoided. Nesting tables may be the most appropriate method where cells of the parent table are to be ...
