I don't understand the implementation. Particularly, why I see automatic recognition (the little triangles in the gutter) of only some of the tables. ... The tables on line 25, 27, 58, 66, and 159 are _not_ marked with a "triangle" in the gutter. The other tables have an associated triangle.

I had a very similar experience the first time I used 8.5 on a test HTML file -- some but not all tables, and some but not all table ROWS got triangles. It was very puzzling and I almost wrote to this list about it then.

However, what I found when I checked very carefully was that there was **something** unbalanced or unclosed inside each un-fold-marked element. Not necessarily the <table> itself, that's what's puzzling, you can see the <table> and further on the </table>, so why can't BBEdit see it?

But somewhere inside that maybe there is a <font> lacking its </font> or a <center> without a matching </center>. Browsers are very forgiving of this kind of thing but apparently BBEdit is not.

I am not going to check your HTML line by line, however I bet you that if you run it through the HTML validator (http:// validator.w3.org/) it will find these missing closures, and when you fix them, the triangles will appear. This could be called a bug, or it could be called a feature (built-in HTML validation!).
