This is a simple 6 x 4 table, nothing complex.
Don't "export" it. Just select the area you want to copy, copy to clipboard, go to your mail composition window (or composer) and paste there. It works very well here. I get HTML with inline style, about as much as you can ask for in a situation like this. The style is limited to the actual styling I had put in the table. (cell borders). It is not much worse as what you get when you create a table in the composer, and for me it was a much quicker way of accomplishing what I needed. I had a tab-separated file that I wanted to mail as a neatly formatted table. I know of no way to create a table in (mail)composer and then paste tab-separated data into the cells, do you? Via Excel it was easy as I could read the tab-separated file, select the resulting worksheet cells and paste them into Seamonkey where it was neatly formatted as a table. I am very happy. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
