HTML table into LiveCode

Post by scunnercampbell » Wed Mar 13, 2013 4:33 pm

Hello. I'm wondering if it's possible to preserve HTML table markup when setting HTMLtext in LiveCode? I'm pulling in content to my app from a website and would like to preserve structural markup such as tabulated data. It doesn't appear that HTMLtext preserves this, so can anyone point me in the right direction when it comes to handling this?

The HTMLText property is just a small subset of the full HTML markup, see the docs for a complete list of what is supported.. You can also look at using a revBrowser to display the HTML table..
