Is there a limit on how big a table can be? My page (http://drupal.org/node/190156) looks fine outside the DO site, but the table quits in the middle here on DO.

I see that Greggles updated the page, but the problem is still there?

BTW, here is the page being correctly rendered by Drupal 5.3: http://nanwich.info/drupal_collection/site_documentation_module/functions

Having a quick look at the output source code of http://drupal.org/node/190156, I can see that the table was closed earlier:

<tr>
<td valign="top">sitedoc_check_orphan_term_node</td>
<td valign="top">Should only be used within the module, but is separately callable.</td></tr></table>
<ul>
<li>TRUE - delete the orphan term-node rows</li>
<li>FALSE - do not delete the orphan term-node rows (default)</li>
</ul>

<td valign="top">HTML string</td>

<tr>

<td valign="top">sitedoc_sequences</td>
<td valign="top">None</td>
<td valign="top">HTML string</td>
</tr>

a correct code would look like:

<tr>
<td valign="top">sitedoc_check_orphan_term_node</td>
<td valign="top">Should only be used within the module, but is separately callable.
<ul>
<li>TRUE - delete the orphan term-node rows</li>
<li>FALSE - do not delete the orphan term-node rows (default)</li>
</ul>
</td>
<td valign="top">HTML string</td>
</tr>
<tr>

<td valign="top">sitedoc_sequences</td>
<td valign="top">None</td>
<td valign="top">HTML string</td>
</tr>

... and remember to close the table tag at the end of the table

</table>

The one at: http://nanwich.info/drupal_collection/site_documentation_module/functions
is correct! It does not look like an exact copy.

There might be more errors, I did not examine the full code.

You probably ran into the HTML Corrector. Moving <ul> to the same line as "Should only be used within the module, but is separately callable." corrected the issue.

    <td valign="top">sitedoc_check_orphan_term_node</td>
    <td valign="top">Should only be used within the module, but is separately callable.<ul>
        <li>TRUE - delete the orphan term-node rows</li>
        <li>FALSE - do not delete the orphan term-node rows (default)</li>
      </ul></td>

@Mahmoud - It was copied and pasted from the other site to DO. It should be an exact copy.

@Heine - Thank you. I really don't see why that would be considered an error. Indeed, as this page was originally created in Dreamweaver, it would not be placed on the same line.

However, I don't use HTML Corrector in my sites. So maybe that is where the problem lies. Could it be a bug? Since that one comment was posted, I realize that I need to make some changes and don't want to re-introduce this problem
