Can tables be included on a wordpress website from within the dashboard?

[weboncloud]

I was wondering if we could include some tabular information in a wordpress website eg. Timetables. I was playing around in the dashboard at the writing section, both the visual writer and the html editor didn't present options to include tables.

How do we workaround this?

You can just drop in the html code needed for it (in the code view). Perhaps a generator to help you out if need be?

Thank you. I'm gonna try it out now. Didn't know we could insert straight html code inside the html editor. I always thought it had some limitations on which html elements it would allow to be inserted.

Thank you again.

Yep. In html code view.

Nope. You can insert ANYTHING. However sometime WP modifies it a bit and throws it off depending on what your putting in there. It has a HTML tidy kind of thing that you can turn off to prevent that, however, tables should be just fine.

There are some plugins which extend the capabilities of the TinyMCE editor to help with adding tables.
