Just for clarification, are you trying to render a dataframe or a series/single
column? The pandas series object has no to_html() method and is therefore
rendered as string only. Moreover, if you select a single column, e.g. 'ROMol'
from a dataframe by df['ROMol'] you will get a series object that is rendered as
string. If you select a set of columns you get a dataframe, for which the HTML
rendering should work. The latter also works for a single column if you enclose
in double brackets df[ ['ROMol' ]], which will give a single-column dataframe.
This took me some time to figure out and the silent conversion that sometimes
occurs can be quite confusing.

Best,
Niko
