Ahh, copying & pasting tables is somewhat impossible due to browser limitations (do you know of
any web application where it works?).
So I take it that you want <table> HTML to be parsed? If so, are you aware of the potential problems with this?

Those forum systems have a WYSIWYG editor, so pasting a copied table, may
look like it's being formatted, but usually after you post, everything breaks.
At least, that's what it looks like here on vBulletin + Firefox 3.
Still, copy+pasting on a non WYSIWYG gives the same result, so I cannot see how it "works" on other forum systems.
Allowing HTML can usually allow users to post some unwanted stuff...
I have never had a table break on me using vb or ipb, and i am using exploror. also then would you beable to add WYSIWYG editor? and even if what you say is true what it breaks what harm is it in having the future added?
Thanks

IE seems to paste the table fine in the editor, but after posting, it breaks here.
Here's an example on IE6:

At best, the next release of MyBB. There may be add-ons for WYSIWYG editors though.

This is only for allowing HTML, not if you have some custom bbCode (but even so, the bbCode would need to be very complex not to break the table).

Ok perfect
Thanks for clearing this up
