 * WordPress 2.0 doesn’t seem to save HTML properly. When I try to save this piece
   of HTML it keeps giving me the first table and will refuse to save the rest, 
   even if I try to save and edit the lines one by one. It will save everything 
   in the first set of <tr> tags and forget the rest.
 * <table width=”425″ border=”0″ cellpadding=”0″ cellspacing=”0″ class=”ol”>
    <tr
   height=”17″> <td width=”135″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol3″>Company Name
   </td> <td width=”76″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol3″> Agency</td> <td width
   =”48″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol3″>Date </td> <td width=”56″ align=”
   left” valign=”top” class=”ol3″>Status</span></td> <td width=”47″ align=”left”
   valign=”top” class=”ol3″>Score</td> <td width=”91″ align=”left” valign=”top” 
   class=”ol3″>Notes</td> </tr> <tr height=”17″> <td width=”135″ align=”left” valign
   =”top” class=”ol2″>USAA</td> <td width=”76″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”
   ol2″>Equifax</td> <td width=”48″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″>5/4/05
   </td> <td width=”56″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″><span class=”style3″
   >Denied</span></td> <td width=”47″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″>675</
   td> <td width=”91″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″>N/A</td> </tr> <tr height
   =”17″> <td width=”135″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″>USAA</td> <td width
   =”76″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″>Equifax</td> <td width=”48″ align
   =”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″>5/4/05</td> <td width=”56″ align=”left” valign
   =”top” class=”ol2″><span class=”style3″>Denied</span></td> <td width=”47″ align
   =”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″>675</td> <td width=”91″ align=”left” valign=”
   top” class=”ol2″>N/A</td> </tr> <tr height=”17″> <td width=”135″ align=”left”
   valign=”top” class=”ol2″>USAA</td> <td width=”76″ align=”left” valign=”top” class
   =”ol2″>Equifax</td> <td width=”48″ align=”left” valign=”top” class=”ol2″>5/4/

 * When doing large blocks of html the rich text editor doesn’t handle it very well.
   Use the basic editor.
 * Just for grins I pasted the code you supplied in my basic editor and it published
   just fine.

 * I can also confirm that the Rich Text Editor will save large portions of HTML
   code incorrectly. As samboll mentioned, just revert back to the standard editor
   and you should be as right as rain.

 * Thanks I will try this right away. Out of curiosity do either of you have experience
   using the Blix theme? I can’t get the sidebar to show up on pages. I added <?
   php get_sidebar(); ?> to the bottom of the page.php file before get footer and
   the sidebar will not show up. Any ideas? Thanks in advance if you know a way 
   to fix this.
