I need to display tabular data in a post. Since I was unable to lay it out properly with stock VB, I created my own table codes. They worked, but VB is adding vertical space before the table (http://www.07020.com/forums/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=13). When I inquired (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=119981&goto=newpost) at vbulletin.com, I was told it was a design "feature" and referred here.
Greatly appreciate any advice anyone has. I'm an accounting type and frequently need tabular data to illustrate points.
Thanks.

that's because new lines before each td tage will produce <br />'s within the table but not within the td tags.
just write your post in that maner:

gdfjblah blaghUsing vb3.5, the [table] BB Codes don't seem to do anything. Do I need to add them using the BB Code Manager?
Edit: Okay, I added the table tags via the BB Code Manager but new lines are still showing as <br />'s at the top of the table. :ermm: I'd really like to keep the new lines (so that the table is easier to read for editing). Any way to do that?

just from within the bb code manager that's not possible.
You'd have to hack the bbcode parser to remove linebreaks between the tabletags automatically
