Putting this here so we don't lose it.
Strange Wiki authoring behavior. I added a table to a wiki post I was preparing, and selected "Left" for the "Alignment" field in the Table Properties dialog box. This was apparently a bad thing to do, as the display was all fetumult. I asked Ken to take a look, and as usual, he had the answers: See below
So I am good to go for now with a Henny Youngman solution, but I am not really comfortable with the situation. I don't exactly understand why anything I would do in the authoring frame using the GUI should be able to affect the layout outside of the frame.
Ken,
Can you take a quick look at this? I cannot figure out why the boilerplate (Add child page, attachments, op relevance) winds up on the side of the content...
(also cannot use the wysiwyg editor to place text below the table, not sure what is going on html wise - I created the table with the gui) not sure whether this is me, or a bug in the editor?)
tks,
Joe
Kenneth: It looks fine in chrome but not in Firefox. Have you seen this behavior with any of the other pages you have worked with?

me: you are right - so there is a smoking gun in there somewhere - some missing tag in there somewhere that chrome forgives and firefox does not...
want me to write a ticket?
Kenneth: I am testing on a different page.. give me a couple of minutes to see if I can reproduce the issue.

me: meantime, I am not going to touch the content on that page for now - whatever it is - something I typed in, or a coding ubu, it should not happen.

Kenneth: The issue is the "align" attribute. Remove it and everything is happy.
