It seems that no matter what I do I cannot get my HTML code in the LonDescription field to import without adding borders to the tables.

Here are the steps I did:

1) Made a simple HTML template in Dreamweaver as follows:


<table width="650" border="0"> <tr> <td><strong><span class="style1">Product Description</span>

</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td><table width="550" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="5">
<tr> <td><p>Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.</p> <p>Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.Here is the product description.

</p></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong><span class="style1">Key Features</span>

</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td><table width="550" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="5">
<tr> <td><p>- Looks great

- OEM Fitment

- Lifetime Guarantee

</p> </td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong><span class="style1">Product Fitment Details
</span>
</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td><table width="550" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="5">
<tr> <td>- BMW

- Mercedes

- Ford</td>
</tr> </table></td> </tr> </table>

2) Pasted this into the Long Description Field in the "Edit Product" page of my site.
3) Exported with the Export Tool 1.2.0.0
4) Re-import EXACT SAME product with Import tool

Result: I get this page here: http://www.stealthauto.c...ts/NEWSKU1__NEWSKU1.aspx

Note the unnecessary " mark and the borders around the tables.
I have tried adding code including border="0" and cellspacing="0" and it doesn't seem to do anything.

Any help will be AWESOME, I have spent HOURS AND HOURS trying to figure this out.

Thanks!

I think you may be right about the CSS issue, but I have no idea how to change it. Can you give me any tips?

Also, what is the "Design View" you are talking about? Do you mena when you click "View in store"

Here is the products in question:

Thanks for the help!

It isn't a CSS issue, and probably isn't an admin textarea or WYSIWYG bug. I'm seeing things like double quoting in your code -- i.e., "<table width=""650"" border=""0""> so it's definitely an issue with the HTML syntax being rendered onto the page, and it could be related to an issue in the importer that wraps everything in quotes. Looks like you're using BV Signature, which I'm not familiar with, so it's difficult to tell exactly from here. Check to see if there's a way to turn those quotes off and contact BV support, if not.

On a higher level, you're much, much better off not using tables for what you're doing. Headings and paragraphs/lists would be the correct method.

a quick solution, as I've had to tap Resposio to do this for me, is to run a SQL find &amp; Replace in the Long Description field. I'd ask your host to do this, backup before you do it!

Find: ""

Replace with: "

I cannot pinpoint what causes it but it's happened to me several times running an export/import via Excel. The HTML code is clean in the excel but it's imported with the double quotes. I'll run the import and then tap Reposio right after with the F&amp;R request.
