Sometimes I need export org file to html so to make others feel easier to read. -- Coeus In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity. -- Albert Einstein ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

The reason I asked this question is because I always feel it's too complicated to edit a table with table.el. Your suggestion is good for me. :) But there are sometimes also need to draw a table as below: |---+---+| | | HEAD2 | Item 1 | | +---+| | HEAD1 | | Item 2 | | + HEAD3 || | | | Item 3 | |---+---+| For such a kind of situation, we only can implement with table.el, right? Really thanks for all your kind help. :) -- Coeus In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity. -- Albert Einstein ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

I just think org table is more convenient than table.el.
