How can I insert a tabbed type table (or any table) into a post? I need to update the handscrew manufacturing event post with a table of the blank sizes required, and am challenged to get it to come out right...
Thx. Scott

We can also create a web template with a table.
Another option is saving your table as an image and inserting that.
Let me also look, I thought you could insert html into a post, or thats an option. Might be a simple tag.....
Thanks,
Jim

Jim, in general, vBulletin discourages allowing direct html into post by users. If there is a small mistake you will loose the display of most of that page and often the only way to fix it will be to go into the DB itself and fix it by updating the post record.
In fact, almost no usergroup should have the "permissions" set that allow the use of html.
I suggest looking at a mod from vbOrg or even a set of custom BBCode. Or even better a custom mod for our site written by YOU Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090824 Firefox/3.5.3 | |

Guys, you can go ahead and close this out. Yesterday I opted to follow Jim's earlier advice about saving the chart as a picture and posting that in.
Thanks for all of the feedback on this.

Thanks Steve, good to know it is a risky idea to add html.
Custom code?  Who me
Glad you got something that worked, I'll close this out.
