My tables stripped bare…

Sorry if this might have been covered elsewhere, but tag stripping seems a big subject.

I like to use the zebra approach
https://www.alistapart.com/articles/zebratables/ to my tables and have noticed something really odd when adding content in the wordpress HTML source editor. A short example of the code lies at the end of these words.

The wordpress HTML editor allows the first row with the class=selected2 tag, but all other rows with this same tag (ie every second row) is stripped – not the tag, but the whole row! So I end up with the desired colour for my top two rows, then half of the rows are missing and I have only 1 colour.

I’m happy to post links as examples; here is a stripped version

And here is a non-stripped, non-wordpress version

Any ideas to fix are gratefully accepted
Thanks, Bill
