TD Maximum Colspan

mmcc128

Anyway to get around IEs rendering of a TD with a colspan of more than
1000? (right now it ignores 1000 and displays the TD as a cell with no
colspan)

What kind of data could possibly be ungodly complex enough to require
1000 columns? I've got to see this!

Maybe it's a really, really large multiplication table. Or a really,
really big linear programming matrix.

Or, maybe he/she/it is trying to achieve pixel-perfect layout up to
(pulling number out of hat) 1024 pixels wide.

I'd be impressed to see a browser render that without choking a bit.

Oh, I can easily imagine data that would require 1000 columns. What I
can't imagine is anyone wanting to read it.

Opera goes nuts, IE just renders to the first cell, and Firefox does just
fine.

.... then it's much more sensible to use a monthly scale rather than a
daily scale.

Nooooo, thats not the spec. So, in the end i'm guessing the answer is
NO, IE does not support colspans of > 1000.
