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 💩:

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.
