colReorder error with rowspan and colspan

HI.

When combining the rowspan and colspan attributes in the first row of the header, an error occurs when dragging columns. Here's an example.

    Looks like it doesn't need ColReorder for the error to happen: https://live.datatables.net/serobepo/1/edit .

    Thanks for letting me know about this and the error. I'll post back when I've got a fix.

    I was just starting to look at this and realised that the HTML in the header is invalid:

            <thead>
              <tr>
                <th rowspan="2">Name</th>
                <th colspan="5">Group</th>           
                
              </tr>
                <th>Position</th>
                
                <th>Office</th>
                <th>Age</th>
                <th>Start date</th>
                <th>Salary</th>
               <tr>
                 
               </tr>
              
            </thead>
    

    It should be:

            <thead>
              <tr>
                <th rowspan="2">Name</th>
                <th colspan="5">Group</th>
              </tr>
               <tr>
                <th>Position</th>
                <th>Office</th>
                <th>Age</th>
                <th>Start date</th>
                <th>Salary</th>
               </tr>
            </thead>
    

    With that corrected DataTables core works just fine, but ColReorder is still throwing an error.

    Looking into it, but glad it isn't as serious as I thought!

    Fix committed to ColReorder. It will be in the nightly build shortly and in the next release :)

    Thanks for letting me know about this error!

    Yes. I received this error in my project and was careless when I described it in https://live.datatables.net/

    Thank you.
