Bruce,
I don't think there is a CSS way to call out colspan. I do email
designs and it's always table based with inline CSS styling. I keep
everything in tables and never use 'colspan' as it doesn't render well
across different email clients.
If you nest the row that has more than one column in it's own table
you won't have a 'colspan' problem any longer. The simple html
structure below shows what I mean.
<table>
<tr>
<td>ONE CELL DATA</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<table>NESTED TABLE
<tr>
<td>COLUMN 1</td>
<td>COLUMN 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
That should work.
