  Please make sure you include your blog’s URL when you post a question, or link your nickname to your blog as explained in the Sticky “8 Things to Know”.

  For tables, you can use html coding (in yout html post editor), or you can format your post in an application such as Windows Live Writer.

  The only time I used a table, I just copied the code from the newspaper article in which the information appeared. It worked, but perhaps it was just luck.

  It was likely luck. Most times when you copy and paste from the web, you end up bringing in code that breaks a theme.

  The easiest way to create tables is to use one of the online table generators where you enter your criteria and then it generates the code for you and you can then paste that code into the HTML tab in your post/page editor.

  I’ve used this one in the past and it worked well for me: http://www.ahfb2000.com/tablemakertool2.php?sub=gen_form
