When I add an html table to a confluence page, it automatically adds lots of <BR></BR> tags to cells. What do I need to do to get this to not add these tags? Thanks

Hi,

to add HTML markup to the page you need to use the HTML Macro. This you can enable as an administrator - details provided here [1]. After enabling you can use the following notation [2]:

{html}&lt;a href="http://www.atlassian.com"&gt;Click here&lt;/a&gt; to see the &lt;b&gt;Atlassian&lt;/b&gt; website.{html}

HTH, Sabine

Thanks for the help! I should have specified that I am creating the table between the {html} tags. When someone edits the page it creates lots of <BR></BR> tags in the table cells.

Thanks
