If it were my software, and if this is not a bug, I would not change webdna's internal code at all. Instead I would simply re-write the docs:


1- Get rid of the instructions and example that tells us to populate a table by creating a two-dimensional array inside the table context.


2- Write some simple new instructions (with an example) that tells us to always use [append] to populate our tables.


----------- OR -----------


If you still want to change webdna's internal code so that we can continue to use the "populate via array" method, just get rid of comma delimiters inside the table context.


Either way seems 100% correct to me.
