Posting tables is real slick if you use the posting editor in WYSIWYG mode.

1. Just select the cells in the table you want to post.
2. Right click and choose Copy or press cntl-C
3. Make sure the editor is in WYSIWYG mode *
4. Right click and choose Paste or press cntl-V

You can also do this with MS-Excel or Open Office spreadsheets.

* To put the editor in WYSIWYG mode click the top left-hand tool until it's not blue.

WYSIWYG = What You See Is What You Get

EXAMPLE:

Here is a link to a BLS Table

Bureau of Labor Statistics Data

At the bottom of this post is an image of the table ready to be copied.

Here is the resulting table:

What editor??
 
What editor??


1. Go to User Control Panel
2. Select "General Settings"
3. Scroll down to Miscellaneous Options


There are three editor options: WYSIWYG, Basic, and Standard.

Standard is the best default option, IMHO. But you can switch to WYSIWYG for a post and then switch it back.
