    Hello,

    Some CSS styles are inherited. We recommend you to set explicit styles to overwrite inherited styles.

    We have also run the following code:

    $html = '<table border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="600">
            <tbody>
                <tr width="600">
                    <td style="background-color: yellow"><ul><li>Item A</li><li>Item B</li></ul></td>
                    <td rowspan="3" colspan="2">1_2</td>
                </tr>
                <tr width="600">
                    <td>Some random text.</td>
                </tr>
                <tr width="600">
                    <td>
                        <ul>
                            <li>One</li>
                            <li>Two <b>and a half</b></li>
                        </ul>
                    </td>
                </tr>
                <tr width="600">
                    <td>3_2</td>
                    <td>3_3</td>
                    <td>3_3</td>
                </tr>
            </tbody>
        </table>';
$docx->embedHTML($html);

    that includes a cell with a background and a list and the output is correct. We have tested the output with all versions of MS Word and LibreOffice; please note that OpenOffice has limitations when opening DOCX documents.

    Regards.
