I've produced a document that doesn't work with LO. It is at 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/mbylcso4r2qm2r2/test.html

Strangely it does open in Abiword.

Earlier documents produced by moneydance as recently as last month open 
fine in LO. I have not upgraded moneydance in that time.

Having quickly opened about 20 html's the problem is limited to those 
produced lately by moneydance.

I haven't had time to look closely at the html source. I suppose it's 
possible that LO is now being more strict in its interpretation.

The work around in the short term might be to use Abiword.
