Why does CT drop empty lines in tables
One of the pages on my clients website doesn't publish properly. My
client does the updates using CT3. The page update is a simple cut and
paste job from an Excel spreadsheet directly into the web page. It
overwrites all previous information on the page.
What I find is that in the formatted Excel file, there are two rows used
to provide blank lines between data for the sake of readability as well
as that it 'prettifies' the page layout.
When the information is 'copied' in Excel all of the cells are part of
the included selection. When it is pasted into the web page in CT it
looks just fine. However, when published, the published page drops both
blank lines (all blank cells).
Has anyone else encountered this issue? What is the solution?
Thanks,

Re: Why does CT drop empty lines in tables
I could see that contribute sends the html code <TR> <TD> corresponding to the
table that is shown in edit mode to Browse mode. Just do a view source on the
page in browse mode. Contribute fails to create between empty <TD> tags.
Browser understands the row only if <TD> has atleast between.
I was just wondering if the view source->in contribute can be modified to
create a new HTML Page? This is bad. i know.

changes the .html code. I went in the edit and added a shim.bmp image
to the blank table cell. That solved the problem; but does not make
things easy for the customer for updating the page. It shouldn't be
that way. I'll try to remember at the next update on the 16th to check
and post back here.
