Hi,
when I'm trying to use tables (\starttables ... \stoptables), I'm often
getting the following error:
---
! Misplaced \noalign.
\TABLEnoalign ->\noalign
                         \bgroup \let \noalign \relax \let \next =

\egroup \...
l.148 \stoptables

On the mailing list archives, I already found some code posted by Hans
Hagen that solves the issue in case of the "\starttable ... \stoptable"
command. I had to insert the following code in my cont-new.tex file:
\def\stoptable
  {\chuckTABLEautorow % before the tail
   \insertTABLEtail
   \TABLEnoalign{\globalletempty\@@TABLEhead}%
   \TABLEnoalign{\globalletempty\@@TABLEtail}%
   \finishTABLE
   \doifelsenothing\@@tiframe
     {\ifinsidefloat\else
        \stopbaselinecorrection
        \goodbreak % compensates all the nobreaks
      \fi}
     \stopframedcontent
   \egroup}
For the "tables" commands it doesn't work though, even not after
changing "\def\stoptable" to "\def\stoptables". Does anyone have an idea
what to do about it?
ctxtools gives the following details about my context version under WinXP:
CtxTools | context version: 2007.01.12 15:56
(c:/TeXLive2007/texmf-dist/tex/cont
ext/base/context.tex)
CtxTools | context version: 2007.01.12 15:56
(c:/TeXLive2007/texmf-dist/tex/cont
ext/base/cont-new.tex)
Thanks in advance for any help,
Jürgen
Hi Jürgen,

could you try to update your ConTeXt first and if the problem
remains send a example to the list.
