  Thanks for your test. I was actually particularly wondering about articles, not forum posts.

  @william Thanks @dpc. Appreciate the help.

  I used http://www.tablesgenerator.com/markdown_tables to create the second table. You don't need to know markdown

  Yes, you can even insert raw HTML into the articles instead of using the buttons on menubar. There's a view source link on right side of that menubar and you can edit that source. So just copy and paste your table of data into the middle of your article.

  As @DPC mentioned, this forum is different. This does not accept HTML, it is Markdown, a quick-n-dirty way to do formatting. MD will not work in your article though, that requires HTML formatting.
