Hi,

I want a cell in the table to be highlighted light red and when I hover over it I want see the title (2 > 3). Hence I have added the title attribute (title="2 > 3")

Below is my Confluence Source Editor code:

<p class="auto-cursor-target">
  <br/>
</p>
<table class="wrapped">
  <colgroup> <col/> <col/> <col/> </colgroup>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <th>
        <br/>
      </th>
      <th>
        <br/>
      </th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>efffwf</td>
      <td class="highlight" style="background-color: rgb(255,189,173);" title="2 &gt; 3">-0.522 : -83.723 : 411</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
<p class="auto-cursor-target">
  <br/>
</p>

 

Once I click Apply in the Source Editor, I in the Edit/Preview mode of the page where I can see the expected title (Refer the below image)
img_title_1.png
Once I click Update, the confluence page gets saved and reloads. But the title is not visible when I hover over the cell. I found that the title attribute is getting stripped when I checked the html code in the Storage Format or Source Editor.

@Gowrinath Selvakumar I would suggest reaching out to the vendor https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1215664/source-editor-for-confluence?tab=support&hosting=cloud and see if they support title in the html.

Hi @Brant Schroeder

They confirmed the issue is not with the source editor for confluence.
