Details

colspans in tables with only a single row are meaningless. However, they are not consistently treated that way in the table code. The table frame code must be careful to check if there is only a single row and do the right thing with colspans when building the cell map, fluffing out column frames, etc.

colspans in tables with a single row are now treated correctly. they act as if colspan=1 (ie, "effectiveColSpan"), but if a second row is inserted they act appropriately.

based on comments and viewing home.netscape.com with the 11/30 build on NT, i'm marking this verified fixed.
