title: Can someone explain why I cant put br tags inside a table
body: <p>The line break appears above the the table, not were I would normally expect it to be. I'm just wondering why this is.</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;table&gt;
          &lt;tr&gt;
              &lt;th&gt;cell group 1&lt;/th&gt;&lt;!--&lt;br&gt; this wouldnt work--&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 1&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 2&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 3&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 4&lt;/td&gt;
          &lt;/tr&gt;
          &lt;tr&gt;
              &lt;th&gt;cell group 2&lt;/th&gt;   
              &lt;td&gt;cell 5&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 5&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 6&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 7&lt;/td&gt;
          &lt;/tr&gt;
          &lt;tr&gt;
              &lt;th&gt;cell group 3&lt;/th&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 8&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 9&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 10&lt;/td&gt;
              &lt;td&gt;cell 11&lt;/td&gt;
          &lt;/tr&gt;
      &lt;/table&gt;
