HI
I wondered whether anyone had any recommendations on table building for responsive design? I am putting tpgether a site and wanted to add the credentials of the client staff much like a CV and all so to list courses that the client offers. I wondered whether there was a nice effortless way to do it... ideally thinking of some software to click and go... Just being lazy I suppose...

How much data do you have? Are you retrieving it dynamically? If only a few columns are needed you can do it without html tables otherwise take a look at this.

There's also a lot of great examples here.

The client has sent me a number of different tables outlining the courses he will run. Typical example is this:
Level 5 Awards Level 5 Certificates Level 5 Diplomas
L5 Award
An award is gained by completing one unit only.
If you have been away from studying for a while it can be a really good idea to start with just one or two units to see how you get on and get back into the swing of it.

A full list of the units offered by PAS is (click to page xxx)
Each unit can be followed by a range of options;
• A one day workshop followed by self-study to complete an assignment.
• Self- study, including a two hour tutorial and then completion of an assignment

L5 Certificate
A certificate is gained by achieving 13 QCF credits – which equates to two units studied.
(if you want you can select any 2 units from our list (as long as they add up to 13 points) (click to page XXX )

Oops that didn't quite work. It is a 3 column table with the headers each being "Level5" something. But that is the simplest, not too bad I suppose but wanted to find something that would not fail on mobile devices.
I was browsing this

But thought there muat be some piece of software to do it that bit quicker... lol

If you have the data in a database you can generate them dynamically.

Unfortunately not in a database. The company is in its early days and has only a few courses to offer but they may get there one day.

That small of a table should be fine on mobile devices as a regular html table.

Many thanks.

FYI I've posted what I am working on at http://tinyurl.com/ollfkpo Just trying to sort out the column widths now....

Now I see you dilemma. You have a large amount of text in your cells. I would go away from tables then.
