Seemed to remove table properties for me

Reported by Will Moindrot | March 20th, 2012 @ 10:09 AM

Hi, nice tool but for me I found that it removed table properties (specifcally border and padding). Code in:

Exposure to risk factor

Outcome

Case

Control

Yes

a

b

No

c

d

Code out:

Exposure to risk factor

Outcome

Case

Control

Yes

a

b

No

c

d

Any ideas? Thanks Will

    Hi Will

    Yes, that's deliberate - the service strips all inline formatting. For most cases, it'd be much better to reapply any missing styling using CSS. Sorry if that's not useful for you.

    Cheers

    Hi Tom,

    Thanks for the speedy response. I hadn't thought about that, but I normally am getting my wrist slapped for not using CSS! I guess you might get this question a lot. The particular bit of work I'm doing is putting stuff into Blackboard9 (a Virtual Learning Environment) and I think it's allowances for CSS are limited (or made difficult). In any case the tool is still very useful to me - I'll just put back in the inline formatting for the tables.

    Thanks, Will

    Actually all had been made clear if I had read the About page - sorry!
