Using Tables in Posts - Error Message

Hi there,
when I write a post I often use tables to illustrate things.

 

When I use the table feature and do some formatting (e.g. formatting the headline bold) I receive an error message "

Correct the highlighted errors and try again.

Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and submit the message when you are satisfied."

After that (coming back from preview) my table looks like ðŸ’©:

Col1Col2Col3
TextTextText

 

What's wrong with using tables? Just try formatting the 1st row bold and set the width of the table to say 80%.

Thx.

    Hi Axel_hnk ,

    Try to copy  your text from the reply box and pasting into a text editor.  Reloaded the page, copied text from text editor and pasted into the new reply box. 

    And you also could test the below:

     

    A B C
    1 2 3

     

    After edit the reply ,it also return me:

     

    Then selected all,click the below:

     

     

     

    I also encounter this problem frequently and it is usually solved by the above method.

     

    Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution!


    Best Regards
