1 00:00:00,510 --> 00:00:06,190 Oftentimes when working with tables it's necessary to combine two columns into one. 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:16,090 For example on this table the first row contains a heading my expenses since we don't need two columns 3 00:00:16,100 --> 00:00:17,390 in this role. 4 00:00:17,390 --> 00:00:21,400 Let's go ahead and merge them to do so. 5 00:00:21,650 --> 00:00:25,510 Remove the second column in the first row. 6 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,650 So here's our first row. 7 00:00:27,650 --> 00:00:29,850 The open and TR tag. 8 00:00:30,110 --> 00:00:38,150 Inside we have two columns and when you remove the second column and next we need to add the Cole span 9 00:00:38,180 --> 00:00:40,640 attribute to the first column 10 00:00:44,180 --> 00:00:48,030 and set the value to to the Cole span. 11 00:00:48,050 --> 00:00:54,720 Attribute defines the number of columns a cell should spend to save the file and refresh. 12 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,700 And as you can see we've now merged the two columns in the first row.
