Tables to divs?

Post by MadcapMichelle »

Hi all,

I'm working with content created in Flare 11. It is structured with tables, which functions similarly HTML and PDF. I'm now working on 2017 r2. The ideal result is a responsive layout in HTML and also output to PDF with minimal adjustment to the css. An equally good result would be to somehow transfer the tables to divs which are responsive. If anyone knows how to do either of these approaches, please can you help?

Many thanks in advance,

Michelle

Hi,

I think this is a nice idea.

Taken from an example form StackOverflow, maybe this points you towards a solution:
