Output widget : issue with colspan

[Tedd22]

When I export a table with export widget, cells with colspan attribute are not correctly interpreted. The content is reproduced in multiple cells instead of appearing only once followed by blank cells.

Thanks in advance !

I do not think this is incorrect, I believe this is by design. I know I like that it does that personally at least in thead. In tbody I could see this being an issue, maybe thead and tbody could be setup differently?

Hi @Tedd22!

I could add an option to not include repeated span content (rowspan and colspan).

In my initial testing, I would need to add a space instead of an empty string otherwise it messes up the results. I'd have to spend more time with the code to figure out why I can't add an empty string.

since no comment was made her dis the option in writing..

output_duplicateSpans: true, // duplicate output data in tbody colspan/rowspan

The output docs were updated :p

Now I just need to add the other docs I missed LOL.

yup just normally you comment in the ticket and I write it down for myself ;) I had to read the code the commit this time so thought I'd help out and share ;)
