I have tried colspan specifically but it does not work too. The thing
is, when i colspan the header, it works. But when I do it to both, there
seems to be no change in the table’s colspan. What is happening? PLEASE
HELP!

This isn’t really a question for the Radiant list. Try asking the
question on http://www.webdesign-l.com/

Aside from that, it’s not clear to me what you are trying to do.
First, simplify your HTML to the bare essentials.
Then validate http://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_input You seem to
have a element as a child of your first , which is invalid.
Lastly, I don’t see colspan anywhere in your code.
