<html>
 <head>
  <title>Cell Merging in a Column</title>
 </head>
 <body>
  <table border="1" width="400" 
   style="background-color: #eeeeee">
   <caption>Online Order</caption>
   <tr>
    <th align="left">Description</th>
    <th align="right">Qty</th>
    <th align="right">Price</th>
    <th align="left">Note</th>
   </tr>
   <tr>
    <td>Email Account</td>
    <td align="right">10</td>
    <td align="right">$9.90</td>
    <td align="left" rowspan="3">
     <small><sub>Order lines</sub></small></td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
    <td>FYIcenter.com Ad</td>
    <td align="right">1</td>
    <td align="right">$99.00</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
    <td>1-year Access</td>
    <td align="right">1</td>
    <td align="right">$199.00</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
    <td colspan="2" align="right">Shipping</td>
    <td align="right">$3.99</td>
    <td align="left" rowspan="2">
     <small><sub>Shipping & tax</sub></small></td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
    <td colspan="2" align="right">Tax</td>
    <td align="right">$15.99</td>
   </tr>
