Technical question, can someone tell how to include a table for a submission? I made a little table, tried to copy it but then found it was kind of screwy. So I made it look "right" in the little message box-- but now it is kind of run together.
Bob, following up on Mark's reply: in Windows 7, find the "Snipping Tool". Drag the icon to your Windows task bar. Open up the table you wrote. Use the Snipping Tool to cut out the table and save it, as Mark said, as an image: .jpg will work best. Then, upload the image to Picasa or Dropbox or the free photo site of your choice. In that program, select the image and use the program's options to define a URL for that image alone. Copy that URL to your clipboard. Next, open up the message screen in this forum. Click on the little green square (3rd from the right)at the top of the message screen and type or paste in the URL: [IMG]Image URL Here[/IMG] Instead of this text, your table will appear.
Circuitous, and maybe not worth the effort? I understand. However, this forum does not support direct pasting of image files (other than its smileys
), so this is what we are left with.
