the col tag was introduced with the iframe tag (both a waste of bandwidth)

blah
stretchs
blah

dont even need thead or tbody, these tags were introduced but no one caught onto them, its mostly only WYSIWYG editors that add them into your code.

tags are only supported by IE and are used with colgroup. Something like so:

<?php
<TABLE>
<COLGROUP>
   <COL width=\"30\">
<COLGROUP>
   <COL width=\"30\">
   <COL width=\"0*\">
   <COL width=\"2*\">
<COLGROUP align=\"center\">
   <COL width=\"1*\">
   <COL width=\"3*\" align=\"char\" char=\":\">
<THEAD>
<TR><TD> ...
...rows...
</TABLE>
?>

thanks

That works fine in opera.
Thanks!

That's the first time I see the tag, maybe Opera doesn't like it. I define cols with 's the first in the table.
