Web Tables, when you need to have two items in same time slot Options

[TBERGER]

I have created a table with times going down the left side in half hour increments. On the top of the table in the columns are the names of rooms.
I am ok up to the point where in the same column two time slots are together.

Like one time ends at 1030 and another begins at 1030. so say the start time is 8-1030 and you put in your 8 slot <td rowspan="6">content</td> then at 1030 you need to other content start if I put that in the 1030 slot <td rowspan="2">content</td> it kicks this last section over to the next column because the first part already has taken up that position. How do you resolve this? I will add what i have done in the html file to create the table.

Would this need to be resolved in the CSS sheet Im using to make the style of the table?

Just look at the table and disregard the other stuff as it will be clear I am jumping around a bit on making this webpage. Yes another assignment.

Without doing all the math, it looks like you've done your math wrong. For instance, there are too many cells below The Tompins Group. You have forgotten to remove cells when you added the rowspan.

No, CSS isn't a solution. This is about getting the table right. In fact, remove the link to the CSS until you've got the table down pat. It just disturbs you. And turn table borders on (with the HTML attribute, remove it later). That helps a lot.

Also, there's no such thing as mata:

CODE

<mata name="Keywords" content="hcc, hamilton conference center, rooms, conference" />

it should be meta:

CODE

<meta name="Keywords" content="hcc, hamilton conference center, rooms, conference" />

And quote attribute values, like href, properly.
