rowspan and relative positioning   

Following is my html.
I had given a rowspan for first row first column. and tr is relative 
positioned.
here rowspan is not coming in GUI because of relative positioning of tr.

<table border="1" cellspacing="0" bgColor="#FFFFF0" cellpadding="0" 
width="100%">
  <thead >
   <tr  style="position:relative">
    <th rowspan="2">
     Two rows spanned
    </th>
    <th >First row second column</th>
   </tr>
   <tr style="position:relative">
    <th >second row second column</th>
   </tr>
  </thead>
 </table>



thanks

Re: rowspan and relative positioning   

I would try putting the style="position:relative" in the th rather than the 
tr, in most cases (not all, but most) it is good to do stuff in the 
individual cells. Doing this fixed it for me.
