I occasionally need to paste from formatted tables into Excel. When I do it in Firefox I lose all formatting, so I have to bring up IE, when I have no problem. Is there a way of copying formatting too?

If I copy to Word there is again no formatting.

Sample html: 

<tr>
            <td>1</td>
            <td class="centre">2</td>
            <td>Graham Gristwood</td>
            <td>Great Britain</td>
            <td>GBR</td>
            <td class="centre">M21</td>
            <td class="right">13:49</td>
          </tr>
          <tr class="alt">
            <td>2</td>
            <td class="centre">7</td>
            <td>Raffael Huber</td>
            <td>Switzerland</td>
            <td>SUI</td>

You can try the Dafizilla Table2Clipboard add-on to see if it helps.

Ahhhh XML for the FIS huh?

I actually use TextPad to retain the formatting and edit.

Have you tried the SplitSecond http://splitsecond.com software which automatically generates all that you need so that you don't have to deal with Excel? It's very easy to use and has alpine, cross country and snowboard modules. Best of all, it's free unless you want to interface with the timing module.

Cheers!
