    Yes, placeholders give everything.
    I just thought to myself, the hardcore codeslingers should be very happy with WD. Why? Simply - we give them placeholder box, mostly similar to the NotePad.

    Would it not be possible to use an <iframe> placeholder and load a page into that that has a HTML table?

    Placeholder: Take a peek.

    (Make sure that you save your spreadsheet file for later editing.)

    This, of course, would be an option for ANY exported output, from ANY application that can generate representative HTML code.

    Hi Cursor,
    Ok I was but that is utilizing an Excel spreadsheet saved as HTML, then incorporating the Iframe to hold the information, not the Xara designer table to hold it.

    I am not trying to start an arguement just trying to unterstand how various work arounds are accomlished in WD.

    Yes, you are correct. The table is created, formatted, sorted, etc. in Microsoft Excel (or whatever program you might have that conveniently addresses tables ... since xWD does not, currently). The HTML code is exported, then pasted into a placeholder so that it displays in a xWD designed web page.

    I would prefer that Xara add table creation features, however, for some later release of WD (and/or XX).

    Thanks for the information then, one question on placeholders. Placeholders can be either a "Layer" with appropriate name or a 'box' with an appropriate "placeholder name", then the size of the "placeholder" governs the size of the Iframe html code, is this correct. If the placeholder is a layer the excel file in your example would render the size of the webpage.(do you understand what I am getting at)

    Strange. I'm not aware of this kind of placeholders in WD.

    Hi coxover,
    Well I created a a website incorporating "flash file" and experimented with placeholders. First creating a layer which I named Holder1, and the another layer with a rectangle with a Name-"Holder2" then used the replace with flash option for each layer and both worked but I created the flash file at the size of my rectangle and exported from SwishMax as a swf file
