print(pd.read_html(s))

Issue Description

I have a HTML string (with rowspan attribute), here is how it look when rendering

Then I convert to dataframe by using pd.read_html command (pandas 2.2.3), here is how it looks:

Totally wrong, the row of 50000000, 100000000 and 200000000 should be aligned to the right.

Expected Behavior

the row of 50000000, 100000000 and 200000000 should be aligned to the right
