Being able to use tables would sure make managing signatures a lot easier (and cleaner)  

I want to second this request. I tried creating tables by using the html tags but it did not work properly.

I can remember that there exist even BBcodes for tables. Perhaps we could implement them?

[table]
[tr]
[td]A1[/td]
[td]B1[/td]
[td]C1[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]A2[/td]
[td]B2[/td]
[td]C2[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

If you go to the third button on your left, the square with mostly blue and green, which says "Special BBCode", you can select "HTML Format" and then enter the HTML there. (Since I don't know the HTML, I can't try it, but that should work.) On the side, just scrolling through, there are some pretty neat other functions there as well - FYI. . .

No, that is what I posted above. It does not work properly:

[html]
<table>
<tr>
<td>A1</td>
<td>B1</td>
<td>C1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>A2</td>
<td>B2</td>
<td>C2</td>
</tr>
</table>[/html]

->

<table>
<tr>
<td>A1</td>
<td>B1</td>
<td>C1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>A2</td>
<td>B2</td>
<td>C2</td>
</tr>
</table>

PS: Yes, I found the acronyms as very useful as well.

Though tables would be useful, as far as I know and perhaps an Admin could confirm, HTML is disabled on EB for security reasons and it's likely to stay that way.

All confirmed, it won't be allowed at any point, there are just too many potential problems.

Is there, by chance, a plugin for the board that would let us create tables without the use of HTML?  (Forgive me if this is self-evidently impossible, HTML is the biggest gap in my knowledge of computers. )

I would really like BBcode for tables, e.g. like this:

Quote

[table]
[tr][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][td]TEXT[/td][/tr]
[/table]

I doesn't have to be html, but I think BBcode tables can easily be implemented ?

[PsyKater]

Yes, I was not talking about enabling html, but enabling BBCode Tables like in my quote. I do not know how hard it is to implement in IB, on phpBB it was quite easy.

Edit: Just found this: http://community.inv...c-table-bbcode/
If I understand it right, the CSS has to support it as well.

Could I have little info if anyone has read my last post? Since the discussion was running in a wrong direction all the time, I just wanted to make sure, that my initial suggestion (enabling BBCode tables) is not lost between all other things.

Thank you!
