For these examples, table rows are terminated with \texttt{\textbackslash tabularnewline} rather than the traditional double-backslash notation. This avoids ambiguity introduced by text processing or editor escaping of repeated backslash characters. \subsection*{Test 1: Minimal Table} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ccc} A & B & C \tabularnewline 1 & 2 & 3 \tabularnewline 4 & 5 & 6 \tabularnewline \end{tabular} \end{center} \subsection*{Test 2: Horizontal Rules} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ccc} \hline A & B & C \tabularnewline \hline 1 & 2 & 3 \tabularnewline 4 & 5 & 6 \tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \subsection*{Test 3: Full Grid} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} \hline \textbf{ID} & \textbf{Name} & \textbf{Score} \tabularnewline \hline 1 & Alice & 85 \tabularnewline \hline 2 & Bob & 92 \tabularnewline \hline 3 & Carol & 78 \tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \subsection*{Test 4: Alignment} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{lcr} \hline \textbf{Left} & \textbf{Center} & \textbf{Right} \tabularnewline \hline Apple & 10 & 1.25 \tabularnewline Orange & 125 & 12.50 \tabularnewline Banana & 3 & 0.75 \tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \subsection*{Test 5: Mathematics} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|} \hline \textbf{Quantity} & \textbf{Equation} & \textbf{SI Unit} \tabularnewline \hline Velocity & $v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}$ & $\mathrm{m,s^{-1}}$ \tabularnewline \hline Acceleration & $a=\dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}$ & $\mathrm{m,s^{-2}}$ \tabularnewline \hline Force & $F=ma$ & $\mathrm{N}$ \tabularnewline \hline Energy & $E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$ & $\mathrm{J}$ \tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \subsection*{Test 6: Multicolumn} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|} \hline \multicolumn{3}{|c|}{\textbf{Student Grades}} \tabularnewline \hline \textbf{Student} & \textbf{Physics} & \textbf{Mathematics} \tabularnewline \hline David & A & A- \tabularnewline \hline Emma & B+ & A \tabularnewline \hline Maria & A- & B+ \tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \subsection*{Test 7: Paragraph Column} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{|l|p{8cm}|} \hline \textbf{Feature} & \textbf{Description} \tabularnewline \hline Tabular & The standard LaTeX environment for arranging information into rows and columns. \tabularnewline \hline Paragraph column & A fixed-width paragraph column allows longer text to wrap inside the table cell. \tabularnewline \hline Rendering test & This tests how make4ht converts a fixed-width LaTeX table column into HTML. \tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \subsection*{Test 8: Grouped Headings} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{|c|cc|cc|} \hline & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{\textbf{Position}} & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{\textbf{Velocity}} \tabularnewline \hline \textbf{Time} & $x$ & $y$ & $v_x$ & $v_y$ \tabularnewline \hline 0 & 0 & 0 & 10 & 20 \tabularnewline \hline 1 & 10 & 15.1 & 10 & 10.2 \tabularnewline \hline 2 & 20 & 20.4 & 10 & 0.4 \tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \section*{Stage 1A Result} If all of the tables above render correctly, the basic table system is working and the earlier failure can be attributed to corruption of the traditional double-backslash table row terminator. The rendering suite should then continue using \texttt{\textbackslash tabularnewline} so that the source remains robust when copied through the Physics Library editing pipeline.
