Copying tables

[bedtimebedz]

I would like to insert a table on every product page to show dimensions etc. I can copy and paste a table I have created but I lose the formatting - is there anyway I can insert a table and keep the colours etc??

Hope someone can help.

Many thanks
Paula

Hi Paula,

What we often do is create a table in Excel, then highlight it and copy and paste it into a drawing package like "Corel Draw" or "Paint Shop" etc. Then save as a .jpg. You can then add it to the text on any page or create a block. Sounds crude but it works!

Thanks so much for your help. I'm finding this forum to be very helpful! I do have another query though... We manufacture children's theme beds and do not have a massive product list. We have created 4 categories, single beds, bunk beds, furniture and accessories (no sub-categories except in accessories). I have these categories on the right block but I would like to also list all of our beds as a list as well. Ideally so when the customer clicks on the 'Single Bed' category all the beds are listed below (at the moment, it does direct to a new page which we still do want!). I have up to now got round it by creating a new block and listing the beds and added hyperlinks but it just seems a bit messy.

I hope you can help me.

Thank you
Paula
