title: Merging table column into single cell
body: <p>I have a table that looks like this and this is its markup</p>
  
  <pre><code>______________________
  _____|_______|________
  _____|_______|________
  
  &lt;table&gt;
  &lt;tbody&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;row 1 column 1&lt;/td&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;row 1 column 2&lt;/td&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;row 1 column 3&lt;/td&gt;
  &lt;/tr&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;row 2 column 1&lt;/td&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;row 2 column 2&lt;/td&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;row 2 column 3&lt;/td&gt;
  &lt;/tr&gt;
  &lt;/tbody&gt;
  &lt;/table&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I merge the entire second column into 1 cell so the table looks like this. Is it possible?</p>
