I know this one is a bit old, but I found this topic via google and I know the answer, so I'm posting it here. Here's the solution for adding `colspan` and `rowspan` to the table without extending the library:

Code:

ee()->table->add_row(
    'first col',
    'second col',
    array('rowspan' => '2', 'data' => 'extra tall')
);
ee()->table->add_row(
    array('colspan' => '2', 'data' => 'extra wide')
);

The core CodeIgniter library supports either a string or an associative array for a value. If an associative array is provided all key/value pairs are translated to attribute/value pairs with the exception of an entry with the array key of 'data'. the value for the key 'data' is used as the content of the table cell.
