Hi,
We are writing a new version of our software using C# and Telerik tools.  In this case we have HTML content stored in the database that is being migrated and read into a RadEditor.  The issue seems to be when the content was created as a HTML Table.  Is there   An example is below:

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 503pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=670 border=0 x:str>
<COLGROUP>
<COL style="WIDTH: 34pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 1645" width=45>
<COL style="WIDTH: 469pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 22857" width=625>
<TBODY>
<TR style="HEIGHT: 12.75pt" height=17>

When this is put into a htm file, it looks fine, but in the editor it looks like the attached Roof Inspection.jpg file.

The Editor (leaving out Tools and Modules) is defined as below:

<telerik:RadEditor ID="DescriptionEditor" Runat="server" 
                    Width="650px" Height="355px"
                    EditModes="Design, Preview"
                    EnableResize="false"
                    StripFormattingOnPaste="All" 
                    SkinID="DefaultSetOfTools"
                    OnClientCommandExecuting="OnClientCommandExecuting" 
                    >

Thanks for your help,
Dan Norton

Hello,

Please, set the CssFiles property to point to some empty css file and test the table content again.
You can find more information how to solve this CSS problem in the following article: Content Area Appearance Problems.

All the best,

Thanks Rumen,
That did the trick.  I pointed the ContentAreaCssFile to an empty css file and it cleared up the format issue completely.
Thanks again for your help,
Dan

Hi Ramkumar,

You can use the server-side Content property RadEditor offers. It lets you get or set the current HTML string that is shown in RadEditor. You can create the tables as desired and insert them in the content.
