Featuring a toolbar icon to create, edit, and delete table items, the ASP.NET HTML Editor easily manage tables through the front-end.

If your users are more comfortable with HTML then there is also the HTML source view option.

The ASPxHtmlEditor is part of the DXperience ASP.NET Subscription. You can start playing with the table support feature when the DXperience 2009 volume 2 released in a few weeks.

Why do you use "Style" attribute instead of dedicated attributes like "Width" ?

Thank you, thanks you, thank you.. can't say it enough! We are really up against the wall when it comes to real estate. Having the table options on a dropdown icon is just fantastic!  Now for the wishlist: order the ASPxGrid by dragging rows.

Hi Alex!

This behavior is by design. We place all appearance attributes in the css style. Also, principally there is no difference between css attribute "width" and table's attribute "width".

Grant: While the row drag-and-drop feature is welcome in the ASPxGridView, it won't be available in forthcoming version 2009 vol 2, we apologize. However, the ASPxTreeList allows you to drag-and-drop rows. Please check, if you can substitute it for the grid. If so, the following example may come in handy:

Great! It is necessary to have the option of merger of columns and rows.

All it needs is a "merge cells" option.

Hi Andrew,

We need to develop a software using the ASPxHtmlEditor but I need to know when exactly the tables support will be available. Unfortunately this is feature is fundamental in our software and we are thinking to change for another editor.

Thank you in advance,

Valerio

We're just about to release v2009.2 and it would be a good idea to have an "accumulator"

Hi Mehul,

Is the HTML table editor feature available when ASPxHTMLEditor is activated as the SharePoint rich text editor?

I replaced the default SharePoint rich text editor with ASPxHTMLEditor but could not see the table button on the toolbar.

Any idea how to resolve?

Thanks.
