Description

Fail to parse rowspan markup. For example, "<rowspan=2>" will cause the following error:

Expected "%" after "2", got ">".

However, <|2> markup works well.

Steps to reproduce

Just to create a table with <rowspan> markup. Please visit SyntaxReference. The table under the title "General table layout and HTML like options" shows this bug.

Example

Code:

• ||<rowspan=2> col 1 || col 2 ||
  || col 2 ||

Display:

• col 1	col 2
  	col 2

Details

Workaround

 ||||||<tablewidth="80%">'''Heading'''||
 ||cell 1||cell2||cell 3||
 ||<rowspan="2"> spanning rows||||<bgcolor='#E0E0FF'> spanning 2 columns||
 ||<rowbgcolor="#FFFFE0">cell2||cell 3||

Result

Heading
cell 1	cell2	cell 3
spanning rows	spanning 2 columns
	cell2	cell 3

We should use the right definition always rowspan="2". So I think we should change the description in SyntaxReference and do change the pages were it was used as rowspan=2. -- ReimarBauer 2005-12-28 18:42:50
