Hi,
I have a question, and information:
1) How do I build a table in DFM2HTML, with rows and columns. I've checked all the software and did not find this function?
2) The version of DFM2HTML I'm using is the v5, and am not enjoying it, and many bugs are occurring. Where I'll find to download the previous version v3.4?
I hope answers, thank you.

Re: Questions about DFM2HTML.
Hi there,
I've been using DFM2HTML for several years now, created various websites with it and can assure you: There's no bug in Rel.5.
Don't take this as an insult, but usually the problem is in front of the keyboard.....
Here are a few, if you're interested in what's possible with it.
http://www.sitz-und-design.de/ / http://incontro-ducati.de/ / http://fool-house.com/ / http://ichrr.de/
They're all in German though but at least show there's not much what cannot be done with that program.
To your table problem: There is no such thing in the program itself but, assuming you're familiar with WORD or something similar, create your table with that. Do NOT use excel!!! All you have to do then is storing the WORD-doc as a website and display it in your homepage via an iFrame. The biggest advantage, other than just creating the table itself with a specialized vehicle, is that it still auto-adjusts to the size of the frame.
If you are not sure of how to deal with that iFrame business don't hesitate to come back here. It's not really a big thing.
Here's an example of a table created with WORD and displayed within an iFrame (In the middle of the page right next to the CITROEN logo click on the word "Nutzfahrzeuge"):http://amt-tir.de/Citroen.html.
I hope this helps bringing new ideas to you about the whole subject.
Cheers

Re: Questions about DFM2HTML.
Hi Reuterr,
Firstly, excuse me for the word "bug", maybe I didn't know how to express me correctly, especially because I like the program a lot, and I already use it for long time, and with a lot of satisfaction.
I worked with the version v3.4, and I updating it for the version 5, it must have happened some problem during the installation, so I resolved uninstalled and reinstalled it, and now it is working correctly. This problem was solved, tks.
About to build a table in DFM2HTML, I found very interesting your indication for first to build the table in Word.
For the that I understood, I have to save the table in Word with the extension .DOC, but I didn't understand what I have to do later. Please, explain me as doing this, to include the file .DOC in DFM2HTML?
Thank you very much

Re: Questions about DFM2HTML.
Ola Jose,
since you're not the only one who wants to use tables with DFM2HTML I opened a new topic:
How to use tables with DFM2HTML
I attached a ZIP-file there which hopefully contains everything essential to figure out how this can be done.

Re: Questions about DFM2HTML.
Olá Reuterr,
I saw there the example table, is perfect.
In fact, I was already creating tables in DFM2HTML, but was looking for a faster and simpler way.
I use the system copy / paste, I copy the "source code" that I create in an HTML editor (I usually use the "Nvu "), and on page DFM2HTML paste, creating an HTML / Script Direct, and mark the box "Generate HTML Content", and ready.
Studying the program some time ago, this was the way I found to create tables.
What you say about it?
As an example, see the link below, made as above.

Re: Questions about DFM2HTML.
Hi and Ola,
whatever works best for you...
In fact I think, creating a table and keep it seperated from the entire homepage by only displaying it in an iframe is less time consuming especially when changes have to be done.
But anyhow, when you have time for that, I think it would be interesting for others when you describe a little more in depth how YOU do it.
All the best
