Am I CRAZY????? Or is Wordpress Messing With My Head????

I am about to lose my mind!

So, I'm building a blog using the Woo Themes Gazette theme. I've created a new page on which I have placed a simple table with two rows, three columns in each row, for six cells.

Then, I go into Amazon and get some code for six products, image and text. I placed the first three and it's fine. Products 1, 2, and 3.

BUT, when I go to post product 4 underneath, all of a sudden, even though I'm placing code for product 4, the graphic and link for product 3 or 2 shows up. OR, worse yet, products 6 or 7 that I have placed in the sidebar!!!!

How can I place the code for product 4 and the code from product 7 shows up from the sidebar????

I must mention, I placed products 6, 7, 8, and 9 in the sidebar hours ago, using simple text widgets. Left the blog for a few hours, and went back to it, created the new page, and placed the table in it, so there was NO WAY I could have gotten the codes mixed up.

I know this explanation is probably hard to understand. In fact, if you've read this far, thank you so much.

Has anyone ever experienced anything like this? What did you do? What was causing it?

Thanks.

    Sounds like a classic HTML issue. Perhaps somewhere in your code a tag was not closed properly. Would you be able to provide us with your code?

    I don't think it is a Wordpress issue. You could always check that by creating a simple HTML file and inserting your Table code into it. You could even do that on your desktop if you don't want it on the server.

    I agree with Omer, a code sample or a link would help us resolve this. Probably a table or CSS formatting issue.

      Absolutely! Here is the entire code for the page from the Wordpress Dashboard. It includes a graphic at the top, and then the table with the first 3 products. Thanks so much!!!

    Hi esr,

    Your code looks fine except for this part

    <table border="”1?">

    which should be <table border="1">, or did you mistype it while posting here?

    OMG, it worked!!! That WAS the problem.

    I got that basic table code from a random blog post I found about building tables and I didn't even notice that tag.

    Thank you SOOOOO much!
