Crazy table index :)

I have discovered two strange result for my "crazy" day

with empty cell


| Plan | Licences | Business Standard #euro | Business Premium #euro | Microsoft 365 E3 #euro | Microsoft 365 E5 #euro |
| ---- | -------- | ----------------------- | ---------------------- | ---------------------- | ---------------------- |
| 1    |          | 10.80                   | 19.10                  | 34.90                  | 55.20                  |
| 2    |          | 19.04                   | 27.76                  | -                      | -                      |
| 3    | 22       | 0                       | 0                      | 0                      | 0                      |

${query[[from index.tag "table" where page == "Library/Malys/MdTableSheet/test5" order by pos]]}

is false, because 22 is the unique value in this column

with ** in title of column

| Plan                    | **Business Standard** #euro | **Business Premium** #euro | **Microsoft 365 E3** #euro | **Microsoft 365 E5** #euro |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------- |
|1   | 10.80                       | 19.10                      | 34.90                      | 55.20                      |
| 2 | 19.04                       | 27.76                      | -                          | -                          |
| 22                      | ${F("B1")}                  |                            |                            |                            |

many columns are ignored

Is it necessary to create an issue in github? @zef

malys · February 21, 2026, 10:01am

mjf · March 6, 2026, 8:20am

Fixed in PR 1870 and it's continuation PR 1871.

malys · March 6, 2026, 8:57am

It will be included to next release ?

mjf · March 6, 2026, 9:04am

That's not at me but we can ask @zef whether he will release another extra minor one with this included...

zef · March 6, 2026, 12:20pm

Just triggered the 2.5.2 release, give it a few minutes.

Not fixed??
I have to do something? (SB 2.5.2) @mjf

marcoswur · March 6, 2026, 12:59pm

I clear site data in DevTools/Aplication/Storage.
And SB reindex alll and its works.

malys · March 6, 2026, 1:32pm

I did "wipe client" but i will try to clean browser data like you suggest

mjf · March 6, 2026, 1:39pm

New PR(s) on the way on main.

zef · March 6, 2026, 1:41pm

Ok, before I throw another release at this it would be good to get confirmation that on edge this is now fixed

Fix table cell alignment for missing and misaligned cells (#1873)

main ← mjf:fix-lua-table-rendering

opened 01:22PM - 06 Mar 26 UTC

+45 -7

The table style is determined by the header row. After normalizing the header (f…illing empty cells between consecutive delimiters), extract two properties: the column count and whether the header starts with a delimiter. For each data row, normalization proceeds in three steps. First, fill in empty cells between consecutive delimiters (this handles empty cells in the middle of a row). Second, if the header has no leading delimiter but the row does, insert an empty cell after the row's leading delimiter (this corrects the one-position shift caused by the row having a leading pipe that the header lacks. Third, if the row has fewer cells than the header column count, pad with empty cells at the end (this handles rows that are shorter than the header because trailing pipes or cells were omitted). The same normalization is applied both in the renderer and the indexer.

Hopefully.

After browser data clear OK

but this case is not fixed

Plan	Business Standard #euro	Business Premium #euro	Microsoft 365 E3 #euro	Microsoft 365 E5 #euro

2	19.04	27.76	-	-
22	${F("B1")}

${query[[from index.tag "table" where page == "Library/Malys/MdTableSheet/test" order by pos]]}

Is it ok or not? I still don't see the issue...

On edge... You even don't need to put - inside the cells, empty cells should be supported correctly too (with some rules laid, if course, because of the nature of the MD tables).
