Beta version of Firefox doesn't correctly render perfectly valid HTML; more, the way rowspan was meanto to be used, see example in

  http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/tables.html#h-11.2.6.1
  (subsection "Cells that span several rows or columns" in HTML 4.01)

and you want gitweb to generate invalid HTML?

Firefox 3.0b5 doesn't render, for a beta version, is not a valid reason for me.

P.S. I don't know / remember who wrote the code in question...
