   Hi all . I can't seem to get zeros to show up in the table on this page: http://staffordcc.wordpress.com/fixtures-2012-13/test-tables/

   Any help would be very much appreciated. The following code was copied from one of those html generator site and copied and pasted leaving me to fill in the blanks.

   <table border="1" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="3">
   <tbody>
   <tr>
   <td>Grade</td>
   <td>Home</td>
   <td>Score</td>
   <td>Score</td>
   <td>Away</td>
   <td>Grade</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
   <td>999</td>
   <td>Home Team Name</td>
   <td>1</td>
   <td>4</td>
   <td>Away Team Name</td>
   <td>999</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
   <td>188</td>
   <td>Player 1</td>
   <td>0</td>
   <td>1</td>
   <td>Player 1</td>
   <td>170</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
   <td>178</td>
   <td>Player 2</td>
   <td>½</td>
   <td>½</td>
   <td>Player 2</td>
   <td>170</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
   <td>170</td>
   <td>Player 3</td>
   <td>0</td>
   <td>1</td>
   <td>Player 3</td>
   <td>170</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
   <td>160</td>
   <td>Player 4</td>
   <td>0</td>
   <td>1</td>
   <td>Player 4</td>
   <td>170</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
   <td>150</td>
   <td>Player 5</td>
   <td>½</td>
   <td>½</td>
   <td>Player 5</td>
   <td>170</td>
   </tr>
   </tbody>
   </table>

   The blog I need help with is staffordcc.wordpress.com.

   I sorted this by putting a space in front of the 0. I'm open to suggestions of a better way though.

   the same problem for me...
   I tried with
   [sourcecode lang="text"]0[/sourcecode]
   and
   [sourcecode lang="text"]1[/sourcecode].
   I can't get the first one.

   I'm also having the same problem. I had an issue with the tables on my website, following a WordPress update in October, which was resolved by kathrynwp via this thread:(http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/html-table-format?replies=27#post-1091318) The problem with the vanishing zeros seems to be a hangover from this.

   My site incorporates a lot of tables, so a more general solution than specific coding changes would be very useful. For the most important tables, I tried inserting a space before the zero as an interim measure - this worked in some instances, but the spaces seemed to stripped out automatically on other occasions.

   Here is an example of an affected page:

   Same for me, sadly!!! It would be funny to understand why...

   Just checked my site, and the problem seems to have been resolved. Many thanks for sorting it out.
