Hi I have been struggling the last day and half with Email Builder (I was doubting my own capabilities here) - to only find out that when you copy HTML in to the builder it rewrites it.  
  
  
  
Pasted HTML Code:

Code:

| Confirmation |

  
Builder Converted Code:

Code:

| Confirmation |

  
I writes inline style sheets for some of the HTML 'tags', strips out 'class' not all email clients respond equally to inline style sheets especially wrt to tables.

Hi I have been struggling the last day and half with Email Builder (I was doubting my own capabilities here) - to only find out that when you copy HTML in to the builder it rewrites it.

Pasted HTML Code:

`<table width="50%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" style="background-color: #3498DB;" class="emailButton">
                                    <tbody><tr>
                                      <td valign="middle" align="center" style="padding-top:15px;padding-bottom:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-left:15px;" class="buttonContent"><a target="_blank" href="#" style="color:#FFFFFF;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:20px;line-height:135%;">Confirmation</a></td>
                                    </tr>
                                  </tbody></table>`

Builder Converted Code:

`<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" style="background-color:#3498DB; width:50%" class="emailButton">
                                       <tbody>
                                           <tr>
                                               <td><a target="_blank" style="color:#FFFFFF;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:20px;line-height:135%;" href="#">Confirmation</a></td>
                                           </tr>
                                       </tbody>
                                   </table>`
