Rick,
Do you mean that <table border="2"> and <table style="border:2px">
don't mean the same thing? Their names suggest they do the same things.
That's a terrible naming. Changing the former to the latter does fix the
problem though. Why is that?
Using the #+HTML_HEAD_EXTRA options as you suggest can also fix the
problem. But could you explain why using the HTML_HEAD_EXTRA is more
advisable than setting the <table style="border:2px"> directly as table
attributes? What would you suggest if we want some tables have orders and
others don't have borders in the same html webpage?
Thank you.
