table changes when posted in livejournal entry

Post by rockindie »

i'm setting up a serice which involves providing users with HTML to paste into their live journal.

when the HTML is pated into a regular page it looks like this and this is what its supposed to look like

when pasted into a livejournal it looks like this:

i've tried a lot to figure it out but i still can't find the reasoning for it doing this.

the html code that i use for this code is located at http://www.rockindie.com/lyrics/code.txt

the livejournal that ive been testing it with is at http://www.livejournal.com/~phunksteve/

i've really tried a lot, editing in both frontpage and dreamweaver and posting it into above livejournal always messes it up. i'd be grateful for any incite into this situation. thanks a lot
