google always return "BR" when I asks to search for "". And also
return a lot of pages where raw html containing mistakenly appear

Best regards

Hello. One issue with tbl is it does not warp the line of text within
table cells unless explicitly warped around using T{ and T}. If the page
is too narrow to hold the table, the table simply expands to outside of
