I'm having the following problem with setting up a dynamic table.

When I add my first row, it shows up as expected.

But then I make a second selection, and a completely blank row is added while the first row is changed to reflect my second choice. After that, I can add rows normally, but there is always a blank row at the bottom.

Has anyone encountered something like this before?

Seriously? I had to set the "scrollable" attribute to "yes". And then the problem went away. I guess for dynamic tables, HL assumes you can add an infinite number of rows so it has to be scrollable, and if you don't set it to scrollable some internal funk happens.

That's correct. If you set scrollable="no", at some point there could be too many entries in there to scroll, which means the user would have to delete some entries to see others.

We should probably actually stop using that attribute on dynamic tables, since I can't think of any time you'd want to have a dynamic table that wasn't scrollable. What were you planning to use it for that you'd never need to scroll it?

Adding classes and levels at each character level, like in the d20 system. I just didn't think it could get that long so as to take up the entire length of the tab (there's limit to the number of levels), but I see now that I was wrong if the window is minimized small enough. I agree it would be a good idea to disallow modification of this attribute on dynamic tables. I spent many hours trying to figure this one out .
