SYMPTOMS
When you run Lookup HTML Titles, the HTML tag  incorrectly appears in the Title field of TblImportObject, which causes tables to be truncated. This occurs because the opening  tag exists without a closing  tag.



CAUSE
The code that parses the HTML page for the title is incorrectly searching for the first occurrence of the character string "TITLE" instead of the tag . For example, style sheet links in the  section of the HTML code may appear before the  tag, as follows:

Welcome to our support site

In this example, because the word "title" appears before the  tag, the string "Welcome to our support site" is returned to the "Title" field of TblImportObject. The result is an opening  tag without a closing  tag, which causes the rest of the HTML code to not display, even though the source code shows that more code is present in the document.



WORKAROUND
Change the order in your HTML documents so the opening  and closing </TITLE> tags always occur before any other occurrences of the word "title."
