    Hi Sheri,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    My assumption is that this is caused by some invalid/mixed-up HTML.
    When checking your site with the HTML validator at http://validator.w3.org/ I can see a few errors that should be related to a wrong/missing/extra/erroneous (not sure what) <div> tag.

    I suggest that you try to fix the HTML by first checking a page without a table, then for a page with a table that only contains some text and numbers, and then for a page with the currently used tables (which seem to be using Shortcodes as well, which could be adding bad HTML).

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi Tobias,

    Thank you for checking in! You are so very kind. You could write a book on customer service.

    At first, I must admit, I was overwhelmed by what the validator revealed. As I combed through the code, I couldn’t find anything that seemed directly related to code I could easily control on the page… seemed more theme and plugin related. Which, caused me to take a look at the code I had used.

    The short story is that I used a third-party plugin to create my columns in the “Bottom Widget” area of my theme. The lesson is I should have used your TablePress plugin for it. As soon as I deleted that and entered my code into a TablePress table and pasted the shortcode in the Bottom Widget, voilá! Beautiful. All my problems went away.

    My lesson is to not cheat on TablePress! You are the best – everywhere. Thank you for what you’ve made possible for us! I was scared to death I was going to be combing through hundreds upon hundreds of lines of code throughout the website to fix my problem.

    You are the best!

    Hi Sherí,

    thanks for your nice and encouraging words! I really appreciate it!

    Yeah, I can totally understand how all of those errors must have felt… Good to hear that TablePress could help you with that as well 🙂

    Best wishes,
    Tobias
