need. I almost always install Tiny MCE advanced in my WP3.0.1 stand-alone
sites and have never had any issues. The table creation and formatting
functionality that it provides is quite solid and complete.
All the best.

Subject: [wp-edu] Creation of Tables in WP via WP-Table-Reloaded
Loren,
Thanks for the suggestion to try WP-Table-Reloaded, but I had seen that one
previously and opted not to try it.
I saw that this plugin is pretty popular and so thought it might work for
me. However.. not didn't seem to be optimal for what I had in mind (though
I could be wrong).
Here's my reasoning: It seems to suggest that it stores each "table" that
you create ( I guess for re-use purposes) and then you reference that table
in your post/page using a special shortcode.
Am I correct in this? If so, that might work for some situations, but I'm
thinking that most times you'd want the actual content in the table to be
stored in the actual post/page and not simply hitting a reference to where
it's stored somewhere else. What if someone removes the actual table data
in the "plugin" backend - or deinstalled the plugin (or it stops working due
to a upgrade or the plugin dev. Stops.)
What I'm pursuing is simply a way to generate the html needed for formatting
in the front-end editor - thus, even if the editor plugin I use to do this
function "goes away", breaks, or I deinstall it, the content in the
page/post is not dependent on it - since it's just standard HTML.
Thanks,
Dave
