Hello,
I have a problem with regular tables, inserting an article or a contribution in the forum.
For example: I have created an Excel spreadsheet that you copied to the default WYSIWYG editor in Oxwall. Table but after saving changes to the HTML code and does not insert properly. I also tried CKEditor and the same error.

How did you copy your Excel spreadshit to the post? Just ctrl+a/ctrl+c/ctrl+v ?

Or you used HTML mark up to recreate the format of the Excel document in the editor?

No, I chose a table and I used ctrl + c, ctrl + v. A contribution in saving format destroyed.
If the WYSIWYG editor to insert a table using "Insert HTML" and manually write the code <table> <tr> <td> test </ td> </ tr> </ table>, so it works fine, but it is impractical and user unable html code. I tried it in a forum, a blog and grupen. Everywhere there is the same problem.

This is not going to work, because the inner structure of the excel document is different from html document, which is why the editor does not support the formatting .

The only thing that comes to mind is just to attach the Excel document to the forum post

Well, I installed free plugin Site CKEditor, I prepared an article for insertion've created a table using CKEditor. After saving contribution to the table formatting is not saved and will remain as <p>. Other formatting such as bold and underline work. Has anyone had a similar problem? I've been thinking about buying TinyMCE, but I think that the problem is elsewhere.

Thank you

I have tried everything and even with the default wysiwyg editor button and paste the html code table <table> does not save the content is copied to the <p>, I managed some of you to create HTML tables to post?

That's because the default styles of the base.css are affecting your table, you need to override the original styles with yours. 


As you can see on the screenshot, I have changed the properties of table, th, tr, td elements and got the table I want.
