html will not work once posted

**snay** · 06-14-2007, 04:44 AM

I am building a table in a post and when I click "PREVIEW" everything looks good. Once I "SUBMIT" it all you see is the html text. I'm a free user, is that why? I'm pretty sure I've turned on all configuration settings for HTML, the "DISABLE HTML THIS POST" box is not checked, I am confused.

Why does it show my table when i "PREVIEW" my post but not once I "SUBMIT" it.

Check the 'Disable HTML in this post' box and click on Submit button. Click on the 'view' link to view the table code designed by you.

Example :-

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> Table </TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<TABLE>
<TR BGCOLOR="#FFCC66">
<TD>Edwin</TD>
<TD>Tom</TD>
<TD>Richard</TD>
</TR>

<TR BGCOLOR="#99CCCC">
<TD>Lara</TD>
<TD>Daisy</TD>
<TD>Moly</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

</BODY>
</HTML>

The html code will display a table as
<TABLE><TR BGCOLOR="#FFCC66"><TD>Edwin</TD><TD>Tom</TD>
<TD>Richard</TD></TR><TR BGCOLOR="#99CCCC"><TD>Lara</TD>
<TD>Daisy</TD><TD>Moly</TD></TR></TABLE>

I have the "DISABLE HTML IN THIS POST" box checked, I click submit, then I click view, and it is still just the HTML text.

ok, i figured out what I was doing wrong. But now, why is there so much space at the top of the posts when you make a table? Is there a command to move it to the top again?

What's with all this space at the top?

to remove the space at the top , edit the table and remove the break returns at the end os the line.

This makes reading the code not overly friendly but is the cause of the spacing.

Hope that helps
