Compiler scrambles my code

Question

Hi all,
Since i am a sdn-newbie, let me introduce myself very quickly.
My name you can read, I am from Berlin, Germany and work as an HR consultant / developer.
i have been watching the sdn in the last few weeks with a lot of interest and hope to be able to participate a lot in the future.
My problem:
we have a bsp-application which is supposed to be designed very differently from the normal htmlb-look. We used htmlb-elements (and custom css) where they were helped (event-handling, data binding) and worked with native html-elements and custom-css where we purely needed formatting.
Now the problem is, that many times the compiler is thrown off and scrambles the code, putting stuff that is outside a bracket inside and so on. So the output html is a mess.
Example:
<table id='criterion_table'>
           <tr>
            <td align="left">
        <htmlb:textView text   = "Mitarbeiter"
                        design = "EMPHASIZED" />
        </td>
is then output into:
<table id='criterion_table'>
           <tr>
<td>
        </<span ct="TextView" class="urTxtStd urVt1" style="white-space:nowrap;">Ricky Ratlos</span>td>
Now I would think that the system is not working properly. Or could it be that handling html and htmlb is a general issue in BSP?
Cheers,
Michael

Hi Vijay,
you are right, the code is incomplete. I thought it would be more of a general issue.
So here's the complete code of the table. Not of the page, because that seemed to a "method not implemented from the forum". I will not put the output source, not to bloat this post too much. I believe you got the general idea.
      <htmlb:form>
        <table id='criterion_table'>
           <tr>
            <td align="left">
        <htmlb:textView text   = "Employee"
                        design = "EMPHASIZED" />
        </td>
        <%
  loop at lt_scale into lw_scale_item.
        %>
        <td width="40">
        <%
  i_value = lw_scale_item-VALUE_IID.
        %>
        <htmlb:textView text   = "<%= i_value %>"
                        design = "EMPHASIZED" />
        </td>
        <%
  endloop.
        %>
        </tr>
        <%
  loop at lt_app_docs INTO lw_app_doc.
        %>
        <tr>
        <td>
        <htmlb:textView text="<%= lw_app_doc-APPRAISEE_NAME %>" />
        </td>
        <td align="center" colspan="5">
        <htmlb:radioButtonGroup id = "<%= lw_app_doc-appraisee_id %>"
                       columnCount = "5" >
          <%
  loop at lt_scale into lw_scale_item.
          %>
          <%
  i_value = lw_scale_item-VALUE_IID.
          %>
          <htmlb:radioButton id      = "<%= i_value %>"
                             />
          <%
  endloop.
          %>
        </htmlb:radioButtonGroup>
        </td>
        </tr>
        <%
  endloop.
        %>
        </table>
