Is it possible? I've a small rable from Excel that I'd like to post in text format, yet no matter what I do, like putting everything into text format and lining up the spaces, all I get is data bunched together and not lined up properly. Is there an html script that has to be used for this?

Try exporting the table from excel to a text file first then copy and paste from there.

Not tested myself but it might work (if not with spaces can you replace the spaces with '.'s?)

No joy on that apporach, but thanks for the idea. I'll have to improvise somehow....

RHP gets rid of extra spaces.

U need to use dashes or underlines to space out your table. Its a mare.

It's HTML in general rather than RHP only.
