> I recently converted a directory lister script from using <table> tags 
> to using CSS styled tables (display:table), and I've noticed that there 
> is no provision for a colspan attribute.  This makes sense, because 
> tables are for displaying tabular data and not for fancy headers, but I 
> want to do it anyway.  Basically I want to make the first cell (that 
> displays the path) maintain the entire table's width without effecting 
> the other columns' width as it does in the <table> version.  Note, I 
> have a user agent switch, since CSS tables don't work with IE, for 
> displaying the old <table>s or the new display:tables accordingly.  
> Here's an example: http://eastsdomain.com/test/ .
