Library Items Quirk
Every time I insert a library item I've created it inserts a </table> and then
generates an open table. How do I make it stop? I went in and deleted them off
of each page, but when I updated images in my library it went through and
reinserted all of these random table tags again.

Do you have unpaired tags within your library item? The code in a library
item must be a complete fragment, in the sense that you cannot have an
opening tag without its corresponding closing tag. In addition, a well
formed library item cannot contain <html>, <head>, or <body> tags, nor can
it contain <style> embeddings or <link> links to external stylesheets. Does
yours have any of them?

Thanks for responding. Since it's automattically writing in code that doesn't
previously exist, I'm assuming there is some option somewhere that needs to be
turned off, but I can't find it. I've gone through the preference and I can't
find anything that looks like it would generate tabs on its own when inserting
a libary item.
All the tags are paired and I don't have any higher-level head or body tags.
However, using your suggestions I did slim down on the number of tags that were
used. In the .lbi the heirarchy was tr, td, table. I took out the outer tr and
td tags and tried inserting it again. This time, no additional code was
inserted.
So it looks like the problem is mostly solved, in that I've fixed my current
problem. However, I would like to still deactivate any options that
automatically inserting code to avoid this same problem in a different
scenario. Any ideas?

mask the error? I don't like that solution.
When you validate the *.lbi page (as if you could), it should validate.
This means that you cannot have any non-terminated or partial page elements
in the *.lbi file, e.g.,
<tr>
<td>something</td>
</tr>
will not work, nor will
<p>something</p></td>
See what I mean?
Why not show me your library item and I'll tell you if you are doing it
right?

Thanks again for taking the time to look at this. Even though all the tags were
paired, it didn't seem to like starting with a tr...which sounds like the
"partial page elements" proplem you mentioned in your post.
Here is the .lbi, the tags I removed to have it work correctly are bolded.
<tr><td>
<table width="717" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td><img src="spacer.gif" width="20" height="28"></td>
<td>images and stuff</td>
<td><img src="spacer.gif" width="20" height="28"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</tr></td>

BINGO.
This is not going to work. What will work, however, is to END THE TABLE
immediately before the Library item. Then you can insert a complete table
in the Library item.
