* Open HTML Editor
* Open a new blank page (it inserts the declarations and base code for you)
* Put your cursor inside the Body area
* Use the table tool in the program to create a 2 x 2 table without any settings just let it insert the defaults.
* Save the form
* Now use the HTML Validator
Well, that's exactly what I was doing, but since we are getting such dramatic differences in validation results, there must be a difference in our codes somewhere, most likely in the declaration. I was not suggesting that the declaration would have been manually inserted or modified.
For clarity, here is my complete code for the test case (then I'll let it rest):
