Table not displaying in RichText widget due to unsupported border=1 property

Issue

A table configured in the Mendix RichText widget does not display in the application, despite rendering correctly when previewed on an HTML viewer (such as HTML Online Viewer). The table should be fully visible and rendered in the widget.

Environment

RichText (all versions)

Cause

The border=1 property used in the HTML table is not supported by the RichText widget. This is a known limitation of the widget rather than a bug.

Solution/Workaround

At this time, there is no direct fix available as this is a limitation of the RichText widget. Use the following workaround:

• Remove the border=1 attribute from the HTML table definition, as it is currently unsupported by the RichText widget.
• Monitor future releases of the RichText widget on the Mendix Marketplace for updates that include table improvements and support for the border attribute.
