Likewise, a cell can be
split into multiple rows or columns.
Dreamweaver enables you to combine and divide cells in two different ways. If you??™re more comfortable
with the concept of merging and splitting cells, you can use two handy buttons on the Property inspector.

If, on the other hand, you prefer the older method of increasing and decreasing row or column span, you
can still access these commands through the main menu and the context menus.
To combine two or more cells, first select the cells you want to merge. Then, from the Property inspector,
click the Merge Cells button or press the keyboard shortcut, M. If the Merge button is not available,
multiple cells have not been selected.
To divide a cell, follow these steps:
1. Position your cursor in the cell to be split.
2. From the Property inspector, click the Split Cell button or press the keyboard shortcut, Ctrl+Alt+S
(Command+Option+S). The Split Cell dialog box (shown in Figure 13-12) appears.
FIGURE 13-12
Use the Split Cell dialog box to divide cells horizontally or vertically.
3. Select either the Rows or Columns option to indicate whether the cell is to be split horizontally or
vertically.
4. Enter the number of rows or columns in the text box or use the arrows to change the value.
