HTML hyperlink to cover several table cells
<p>I have a very simple HTML table which has one row and two cells. The first cell has a hyperlink which should cover both cells. How could I get my hyperlink to cover the second td of my table?</p>

<p>Here is my HTML code:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;table&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
    &lt;td style="width:100px;padding:0"&gt;
      &lt;a href="yes.htm" style="padding-top:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-left:5px;padding-right:5px;position:relative;top:0;left:0;right:0;display:block;margin:0;box-sizing:content-box;height:22px;line-height:22px;"&gt;Yes&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/td&gt;

    &lt;td style="width:30px;padding:5px"&gt;Oh yeah&lt;/td&gt;
  &lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Now my hyperlink only covers the first td, but not the second one. What could be done?</p>

<p>I do not want to use JavaScript. I do not want to copy the link to both table cells.</p>
