New visual editor issue with table tag.
-
Following the recent change to the visual editor, the code I had been using to change the background colour on a table I’d set up for some of our posts is being stripped by the editor. I can’t edit older posts or produce new posts with the old template as a result. Code below.
<table> <tbody> <col style="background-color:white"></col> <col style="background-color:#0000FF"></col> <tr> (content) </tr> </tbody> </table>The <col> commands are being stripped by the visual editor.
Is there a workaround for this and can I expect a fix in the near future?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hey there,
It looks like there is another forum set up for table issues:If you are running into problems where formatting is lost or you’re getting strange formatting, please let us know, particularly with table data. You can post in the following thread with a link to your post or page that isn’t working; it would also be super helpful to have a copy of the Word source document uploaded to your media library so we can take a look.

I hope this helps. =)

Are you trying to edit/add the table attributes in the Text editor or the Visual editor?

Might be related, but I’m not using a word doc. This is stuff I’ve coded into the text editor myself. The old visual editor would reflect the changes, the new one is stripping the code I mentioned.

Oops, now I get what you’re asking. Sorry, wish there was an edit button here.
I’m using the text editor to add the code, but the tags, specifically the
<col>tags, are being stripped when I retun to the visual editor. -
It looks like there are a number of issues being reported with the Visual Editor in Firefox. Could you try a different browser such as Chrome and see if that resolves the issue for the time being?
