Hi everyone,

i'm trying to send an HTML table in a email using python, but everything is okey with that (i said it just to give info). This is the text of an example email i send with python (printed just before to be sent):

TABLE

COLUMN1COLUMN2
DATA1<a href=webexample.com>DATA2</a>
</br>

Everything is okey but, when i read with Thunderbird some emails with tables, this tables are corrupted BY A WHITESPACE that wasn't at first in the html email code. As i seen, it happens when some tag like <td> is at the end of a html line and Thunderbird write the first half of the tag in one line and A WHITESPACE WITH THE OTHER HALF PART in the other line. Here is an example from the font code of an email in Thunderbird:

TABLE

<
COLUMN1COLUMN2
DATA1

Why this happen?

Okey this webpage have interpreted the html code i posted. I add an image with the code:

You have <th>COLUMN2</th1>

(That is IMHO a hideously unreadable font…)

I use &lt; to generate a < character that the forum engine won't parse. Occasionally a leading space or the <code>…</code> and <pre>…</pre> tags work.

Note that a line with a leading space is formatted as if code.

But even with all these I think you still need to escape the '<'. :-(

I wonder if you might avoid some problems by wrapping your lines, thus:

<table border="1">
  <tr><th>COLUMN1</th><th>COLUMN2</th></tr>
  <tr><td>DATA1</td><td>DATA2</td></tr>
</table>

Thank you! I think i will coding your second solution, it is just parsing the lines, bored but it will work.
