Created attachment 52670 [details] Malformed input that LO accepts, leaving human wondering what's going on. This is more of a question than a bug report, but I'm not sure where to "discuss" or ask this question. Distilled from a legitimate case of a program outputting slightly malformed input, the question is "how strict should LO be about interpreting it's input?" The attached document and screenshot showcase an example where a bit of ODS input is slightly malformed. This apparently doesn't bother LO, but certainly messes up the logic, as the background of the cells should be blue, not red (based on conditional formatting logic). Content.xml is slightly malformed on lines 34 and 39. Line 39 is the more "insidious" case as the output within LO even passes the basic inspection of a human eye. (Click on cell C15, then click Format -> Conditional Formatting, and inspect the values. It /looks/ right, doesn't it?) This is "broken" as far back as OpenOffice 3.2, but I don't have any interim LibO versions installed; I'm not sure what version to set the dial to for this bug report.

Created attachment 52696 [details] Associated screenshot Doh! Forgot to include the screenshot last night. And the description in Comment 0 should read "cells should be blue, not green".
Thanks for bugreport reproducible in 3.3.4 and 3.5.2 on Fedora 64 bit changing version to 3.3.4 as most early reproduced When save this file and reload again, it works correctly IMHO it is functionality request for adding warning for user if in opened odt file is some problem
