Hi Matthew,

Please could you show your HTML and I will take a look and find the problem.

Take a look at the Markdown Cheatsheet to see how to show your HTML in this discussion.

Thanks

I figured the problem out but thanks. I thought "<th>" would suffice, but I really need to add <thead> (because thats what it was asking for.) I copied the html into the question, but it didn't show up. Where is the Markdown Cheatsheet for future reference? Thanks
