Indeed. I’ve noticed there are other aspects you have to be careful with as well that don’t jive as nicely on mobile.Tables tho, are an odd bird on Discourse. On the one hand - it lets you use them. On the other - it doesn’t let you use any table attributes to customize them.
I’m guessing Discourse has a Markdown parser with added BBCode support. Markdown naturally supports HTML to some degree, anything with a security risk is disabled and so are the majority of styling attributes (for Discourse).
because make small text with [small] is working and [aname=NAME] + [jumpto=NAME] have an effect:
it would replace the need for <a name + <a href respectively. I still prefer Markdown’s [text](#anchor-name) over <a href="#anchor-name">text</a> or [jumpto=anchor-name]text[/jumpto] though.
The table working better without HTML is probably due to Markdown putting a div tag with a class="md-table" as the table’s parent. You could try adding that div around your HTML table, maybe adding a class attribute to a div tag is possible.
To each their own. I like pushing it and bending it to see what I can make it do
True. Just like with that freak of nature thing I pulled off with <span> tag you showed me in the other thread, sometimes you can bypass Discourse’s limits by doing stuff like that that it isn’t expecting. Fun stuff.
