It is the opposite of despite (even though), so it means "becauase" or "due to".

This word still isn't in microsoft's dictionary, unfortunately, so many people don't use it. Try not to use it too much, because one day you will come across a teacher/boss/mean granny who does'nt think that the word exists.

Sorry for the extra information.(If you're in a rush)

In spite is two words and means the same thing as despite. They both mean "regardless of." Example: Betty continued her plans for the picnic in spite of the fact that it was supposed to rain. Betty continued her plans for the picnic despite the fact that it was supposed to rain.

"in spite of" is a group of three words--a preposition, a noun, and another preposition--which together function as a preposition meaning roughly the same thing as "despite."
