Hi,
I have code that is creating tables dynamically. For some reason
unbeknown to me, the attributes 'rowspan' and 'colspan' are being
ignored in IE 6.02 on XP SP2
In Firefox the behaviour is as expected.
The code I am using is as follows:
newTD = document.createElement("td")
newTD.setAttribute('width', '139')
newTD.setAttribute('rowspan', '2')
newTD.setAttribute('align', 'left')
newTD.setAttribute('vAlign', 'top')
newTD.setAttribute('class', 'AllBorders')
newTD.innerHTML = " "
newRow.appendChild(newTD)
newTD = document.createElement("td")
newTD.setAttribute('width', '150')
newTD.setAttribute('rowspan', '2')
newTD.setAttribute('align', 'left')
newTD.setAttribute('vAlign', 'top')
newTD.setAttribute('class', 'AllBorders')
newTD.innerHTML = "Centre"
newRow.appendChild(newTD)
newTD = document.createElement("td")
newTD.setAttribute('width', '225')
newTD.setAttribute('colspan', "3")
newTD.setAttribute('align', 'left')
newTD.setAttribute('vAlign', 'top')
newTD.setAttribute('class', 'AllBorders')
newTD.innerHTML = "Bandwidth (KB/s)"
newRow.appendChild(newTD)
newTD = document.createElement("td")
newTD.setAttribute('width', '283')
newTD.setAttribute('colspan', '3')
newTD.setAttribute('align', 'left')
newTD.setAttribute('vAlign', 'top')
newTD.setAttribute('class', 'AllBorders')
newTD.innerHTML = "Support"
newRow.appendChild(newTD)
tBody.appendChild(newRow);
Can anyone give me any tips
Thanks in advance

[code snipped]
The reason could be anywhere in the table, and you're only showing one row.
Can you provide a URL to the whole thing?

You would better ask such questions in comp.lang.javascript.
newTD = document.createElement("td")
newTD.setAttribute('rowspan', '2')
IE enforces its very own casing of attribute names when scripting them
so you need
newTD.setAttribute('rowSpan', '2')
You can find the docs about the attribute/property names IE uses here:
<http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/properties.asp>
Most regulars in comp.lang.javascript will suggest to use the HTML DOM
with properties
newTD.rowSpan = 2;
anyway, and there the casing matters too but is consistently in browsers.

That's two questions, not one.
Store the generated HTML and look at it. Does it even contain the
attributes you expect ? (a JavaScript problem)
If they are there, but the browser isn't rendering it (a HTML
problem), then edit the static HTML until it does work. Then worry
about how to change your generator to make this HTML.

Hi Martin,
This was exactly my problem.
Thanks to all who replied. I also found out that not only is case an
issue but the attribute name as well. Case in point attribute
'class'->firefox is classname in IE.
