Hi, is it possible to put a pre-formatted text (ie. a table in simple text format) into a special block of the posting so that the formatting stays intact? I tried the CODE block but the formatting gets lost :-( Any other method or trick?
It seems to work: Code: 2-space-indent 4-space-indent 8-space-indent table1 (using spaces) ------------------------ th1 th2 th3 ------------------------ r1c1 r1c2 r1c3 ------------------------ r2c1 r2c1 r2c3 Code: table2 (using tabs) ------------------------- c0 c1 c2 ------------------------- Code: .------------------------------. | Basket | +----+-----------------+-------+ | Id | Name | Price | +----+-----------------+-------+ | 1 | Dummy product 1 | 24.4 | | 2 | Dummy product 2 | 21.2 | | 3 | Dummy product 3 | 12.3 | +----+-----------------+-------+ | | Total | 57.9 | '----+-----------------+-------' Code: ........___________________ ....../ `-___________--_____|] - - - - - - - - ░ ▒▓▓█D ...../==o;;;;;;;;______.:/ .....), -.(_(__) / ....// (..) ), --" ...//___// Code: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXFEDERAL RESERVE NOTEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXX XX THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA XXX XX XXXX XX ------- ------------ XXXX XX XXXX XX / jJ===-\ \ C7675 XXXX XX XXXXXX OOO / jJ - - L \ --- XXXXXX XXXXX OOOOO | JJ | X | __ XXXXX XXX 3 OOO | JJ --- X | OOOO 3 XXX XXX | J|\ /| | OOOOOO XXX XXX C36799887 | / | | \ | OOOO XXX XXX | | | | -- XXX XXX ------- \ / \ / XXX X XX \ ____________ / X XX XX XXX 3_________ -------- ___ _______ 3 XXX XX XX XXX ___ ONE DOLLAR i XXX XX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Code: +---------------------------+ | ///////////////////////// | +---------------------------+ | [ 1,264.45 ] | +---------------------------+ | | | | | [sto] [rcl] [<--] [AC/ON] | | | | [ ( ] [ ) ] [sqr] [ / ] | | | | [ 7 ] [ 8 ] [ 9 ] [ * ] | | | | [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ - ] | | | | [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ + ] | | | | [ 0 ] [ . ] [+/-] [ = ] | | | +---------------------------+ Code: .-""-._ / ___/ \ _&_ _.--""|/ `\| // \\ .'

cool! that's exactly what I need. Funny, last time I tried the CODE block it didn't work, as said. Will try it again. Thanks for the wonderful examples.
testing myself... Code: table1 (using spaces) ------------------------ th1 th2 th3 ------------------------ r1c1 r1c2 r1c3 ------------------------ r2c1 r2c1 r2c3 Hmm. why is it not working when I do it???
Code: table1 (using spaces) ------------------------ th1 th2 th3 ------------------------ r1c1 r1c2 r1c3 ------------------------ r2c1 r2c1 r2c3 Ok, now it works. One has to do it via the 6th icon (table/code) from right on top of the editor... When editing a posting it is the 5th icon from right.
