[support] HTML filter and <table> tags

Take a look at your input format configuration first.  (Admin->Site
Configuration->Input formats) Configure the filtered html input format.


If you look at the configure tab, you likely have filtered html set to
escape all tags, and that table tags are not listed in the "Allowable
HTML tags" field.  Be sure to list all tags you want to pass through. 

I might also recommend changing this to "Strip disallowed" rather than
"Escape all tags".  

Hope this helps.

Dave

Thanks Dave, the ones that look good (as you pointed out above) actually
have 
input format set to Full HTML, which is not what I want. The content
<table> 
and related tags are hand edited, no WYSIWYG on that site. Only auto 
generated code was from img_assist. 

Disabling img_assist (just tried that) makes no difference. Sigh.
Looks like I will have to try to recreate the problem on a fresh test 
installation.
