Text doesn't appear

    Hi: I have text that should appear on my site that won’t show up no matter what I try. My site is http://www.stevenyoder.net, and the missing text is “The Fiscal Times, 4/2/12” (see coding below)–should appear in the first entry on the home page of the site. Below is the coding from the Edit Page. Note that the syntax exactly the same as the entry that follows it—and that second entry is fine. Any help most appreciated.

    Is your HTML-code well formatted ?
    The code that you copy-pasted is missing HTML “closing tags ” .
    This link (randomly chosen from Google) shows an good HTML-table example .
    Have you written the HTML-code in the proper fields ?
    It should be written into the “HTML” tab of the code editor (not into the visual tab) .

    Thanks a lot–I’ve read that and checked that all of my codes are paired–still no luck. And what’s oddest is that I have identically formatted table entries on that page (www.stevenyoder.net), all of which work, except this one. I’ve pasted my code below in easier-to-read format this time (between backticks), in case anyone wants to take a crack at solving the mystery. I appreciate it.

    Text is correct and shows up fine in IE7, 8, 9 and FF.

    Thanks–I just took one of the entries below it that worked and copied in the substantive text–and now it works–no idea why, but happy it is fixed. Thanks for taking a look.
