Page Disappearing (HTML mystery)

    Hi,

    I'm puzzled!

    I have this page in my WordPress blog (see link below, or click here: the world) which has about 50 thumbnails screenshots of blogs I read. It's basically an illustrated blogroll.

    The HTML is a table, like that:

    <table> <tr> <td>[caption id="attachment_1397" align="alignnone" width="150" caption="A Canadian In Norway"]<a href="http://acanadianinnorway.blogspot.com/"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-1397" title="A Canadian In Norway" src="http://correresmidestino.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/a-canadian-in-norway-150x150.jpg" alt="A Canadian In Norway" width="150" height="150" /></a>[/caption]</td>
    <td>[caption id="attachment_1399" align="alignnone" width="150" caption="A Little Time"]<a href="http://a-little-time.blogspot.com/"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-1399" title="A Little Time" src="http://correresmidestino.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/a-little-time-150x150.jpg" alt="A Little Time" width="150" height="150" /></a>[/caption]</td>
    </tr> </table>

    I save the page... and the HTML in the text editor, as well, as the visual disappear from the post! And of course, the page shows blank.

    Worse part is... The page showed perfectly fine one second, and disappeared the other!

    I had saved the HTML table, so I pasted it again in the HTML of the page (when editing the page) -- the visual in the dashboard is fine, shows the screenshots.

    I resfresh the page and... everything disappears again, in both the text editor and of course on the published page.

    Right now, the screenshots display fine, after much pasting/ saving/ disappearing. But I'm wondering what is causing this behavior...

    Any clue?

    It is confusing, what you say, can you be a little more clearer?

    I understand, I'm confused myself!

    Basically, I make a HTML table, which keeps on disappearing when published, and even in the editor.

    This guy has the same problem: read here

    I'm searching for a solution, but apparently it's a WordPress problem, because a lot of people seems to have the same issue (google "problem with tables in Wordpress".

    Sorry, I can't be much clearer, because I don't even understand where the problem is myself.
