Javascript | How to know if a cell is merged in a table?

Question

Hi,

I'm currently working on a script that applies a background color to a column.

With simple table it works fine, but when on the first rown there is two cells merged, and if I select the merged cells and the two columns below, it only colors the first one.

I thought that if I knew if the selected cell is a merged cell, I could easily color the selected column.

Many thanks,

Nicolas

columnSpan is for horizontal merges, rowSpan for vertical, so best check both (http://jongware.mit.edu/idcs5.5js_html/idcs5.5js/pc_Cell.html)

If a cell's rowSpan is greater than 1 it's horizontally merged.if (myCell.rowSpan > 1)P.
