After "Inserting a Table".. I am prompted for the table properties... rows, columns, height, etc.. etc...

How on earth, after I create the table... do I delete it? Remove a Row? Remove a column? These are grayed out, when going back into 'modify table'.

PS - I can do this in the html manually, and if it were up to me, I wouldn't allow the client to create tables this way, because they look terrible and need the classes to be applied very carefully... but this is what my client wants. Please assist.

Hi there!

Click on the table borders until it looks like it's selected (the "drag & drop" squares should appear, but the contents of the table itself should not be highlighted.) Then, right click, and choose "Delete Table".

That should do it! :)

Thanks Donna... it doesn't allow me to alter the column/row structure however.

That same menu where you can see the "Delete Table" option when you right click on it also has some others -- including the table properties (where you can re-edit the initial settings), and some individual cell & row options. Click those menus to see the other options available. :)

yeah I can't get this to work on a mac with only one mouse button... even the 'control-click' doesn't give me what you're showing. I haven't tested on a PC yet.

Hi there,

It looks like that was done on purpose. :) Take a look at this thread in the TinyMCE forums for a way to fix the context menus so they show up with a control click:
