What happened?

When using the addRow using 'data'with cell tag attributes (class, colspan, etc), the cell tags attributes will be displayed as columns

Steps to Reproduce

$table = new \CodeIgniter\View\Table();
$table->addRow(['data' => 'Blue', 'class' => 'highlight', 'colspan' => 2]);
echo $table->generate();

Expected Output

Expected:

<td class='highlight' colspan='2'>Blue</td>

What it outputs:

<td>Blue</td><td>highlight</td><td>2</td></tr>

Anything else?

Please notice that if you add another 'column' on the same addRow it will output correctly:

$table->addRow(['data' => 'Blue', 'class' => 'highlight', 'colspan' => 2], 'Red');

Outputs:

<td colspan="2" class="highlight">Blue</td><td>Red</td></tr>

I have confirmed this behavior.
But do you really need to output one column table like that?

This seems difficult (impossible?) to fix. So I don't fix.

This is not a bug. Because you pass three elements to addRow().
The following two lines are the same meaning, passing three column data.

$table->addRow('Blue', 'Red', 'Green');
$table->addRow(['Blue', 'Red', 'Green']);

If you need to pass one element, use array of array.

        $table = new \CodeIgniter\View\Table();
        $table->addRow([['data' => 'Blue', 'class' => 'highlight', 'colspan' => 2]]);
        return $table->generate();

Fair enough. Close it.
