Description
Symptoms
- When inserting a table within a Confluence page, the <thead> element, which is supposed to be used to group table heading elements, does not exist neither in Edit mode view, nor when exporting the page to HTML.
Steps to Reproduce
- Insert a table within a Confluence page.
- Use Heading row function found in Editor toolbar to make heading cells.
- Save the page.
- Export page to HTML. Or:
- Enable the Inspector tool from your browser.
- Look for the <thead> element when page is in Edit mode view.
Expected Results
- <thead> element should be associated with the table on HTML code.
Actual Results
- <thead> table element is only found when page is not in Edit mode view (screen shot attached).
- <thead> element does not exist in exported HTML (index2.html) or when in Edit mode view (screen shot attached). This causes trouble when a table is split over more than one pages, hence the table header does not appear on the subsequent pages when exporting to HTML.
Workaround
- For HTML Export situation, you ca manually insert <thead> element directly in the HTML code.
