Lightmaker2014 2 Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) If I try to paste a table it shows up as a table in the posting area, but as a preview or the posted thread, it messes up and puts the stuff as a straight down column: Like this: A B A B A B A B 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Instead of this: Edited November 9, 2014 by Lightmaker2014 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Galv 1,387 Posted November 9, 2014 I think this happens because the forum doesn't keep certain formatting (such as HTML) for safety purposes. I recommend if you would like to display a table in the forum you take a screenshot and display as an image. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheoAllen 830 Posted November 10, 2014 You can switch into BBcode mode and copy the raw BBcode script to keep the formatting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lightmaker2014 2 Posted November 11, 2014 It was Microsoft Word 2007 tables. I just took screens on how they looked in the post editor and uploaded to photobucket and pasted back into the posts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RagingHobo 206 Posted November 11, 2014 HTML posting is disabled by default for pretty much everyone below an Admin. This is essentially this is what you are pasting into that window from word. It can and will render it for viewing purposes but once you go to post it any and all elements will be stripped from it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
