Merging Table Rows?
Nov 3 2010, 9:11 PM EDT | Post edited: Nov 3 2010, 9:11 PM EDT
Why won't it work? I've always been able to merge the rows. Has something happened that will not allow me to do this? Or is it a glitch? Do you find this valuable?

Yes. I have all the requirements for wetpaint usage. My previous method to merge the cells was to add a random letter to the cells i wanted to merge, highlight them, right-click, select merge cells. But now that's not working.

Is there another way I can merge cells?

I don't believe that feature is available anymore. Tables are always glitchy though.

I tried it out... and it still worked...
You might try a reboot of your computer...
Clear cache and cookies...
Check your versions of browser, Flash and Java...

¿Having some trouble? Try this:
In each table cell type in “M M” (m m, with the space). Drag your mouse at least from the space between the m’s. You should have a distinct color change; Right click and select “Merge Cells” as normal.
Good luck.;)

Thanks! Didn't think to try it that way, usually just one letter would work for me.

You can merge empty cells by selecting them...
> right mouse click > merge cells
No need to put text in there first...

____Usually that works, but on netbooks and other “econoboxes” of the internet you need something to “grab” or it can’t lock onto the cell. (This very post is being made using a netbook.)
