HTML is the foundation of webpages, is used for webpage development by structuring websites and web apps.You can learn HTML from the ground up by following this HTML Tutorial and HTML Examples.

The colspan attribute in HTML specifies the number of columns a cell should span. It allows the single table cell to span the width of more than one cell or column. It provides the same functionality as “merge cell” in a spreadsheet program like Excel.

Note: colspan=”0″ tells the browser to span the cell to the last column of the column group (colgroup).  

Syntax:

<td colspan = "value">table content...</td>

Note: It can be used with <td> and <th> elements in an HTML Table.
