Table behaving badly

    Hi Tobias, great plugin.

    I have created a table with a long list of voluntary groups and links to their websites and social media (https://swlen.org.uk/groups-test-page-2/). I bought your responsive table plugin so it can display nicely on mobile devices. However, the table looks really bad on both desktops and mobile phones, it looks as if some of the rows joined in one and created new columns by themselves? Even the search box disappeared. It’s very weird and as I’m not a very techie person, I’ve no clue what’s happening. Any ideas as to how I can fix that? Thank you

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    The cause for this is some invalid HTML code in your table. In particular, there’s a quotation mark " missing near the end of the HTML code for those small Facebook icons in the third column.
    Right now, you have
    <img class="alignnone wp-image-2756 size-full" src="https://swlen.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Faceb-log-1.jpg" width="25" height="2/>
    there, but that needs to be

    <img class="alignnone wp-image-2756 size-full" src="https://swlen.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Faceb-log-1.jpg" width="25" height="2" />

    (note the missing " right before the /> at the end of the code).
    This missing " causes the HTML code to be correct, and as a result the browser renders the table wrongly.

    If you add that " in the HTML code for those Facebook icons, everything should work fine again. If I counted correctly, there should be 14 occurrences of this.

    Regards,
    Tobias
