Q.Why did the HTML I entered break my page layout?

Views: 2,081

When entering HTML in customizable boxes, it is possible for errors in the HTML to affect the layout of the whole page. The most likely errors include:

Missing angle brackets or quotation marks

If the characters > or " are missing, they may break the page layout:

Missing angle bracket:

<a href="http://demo.ocnk.net/"

In the above example, the character > is missing.

Missing quotation mark:

<a href="http://example.ocnk.net/>

In this example, the second " character is missing.

Both of these errors should be corrected to the following:

<a href="http://example.ocnk.net/">

Missing end tags

The page layout may also be broken if an ending tag is missing or not typed properly.

<table>
  <tr>
    <td>example</td>
    <td>example</td>
  </tr>

This code is missing the </table> end tag, so it treats the entire rest of the page as part of the table.

<table>
  <tr>
    <td>example</td>
    <td>example</td>
  </tr>
<table>

In this code, the ending </table> tag is mistyped as <table>.

For both of the above, the correct code is:

<table>
  <tr>
    <td>内容</td>
    <td>内容</td>
  </tr>
</table>
