I am working with a client that needs to have partial table borders the way you can in MS Word and Excel. For example only showing the border on the bottom of a specific cell in a table. This formatting is not retained when they copy it in from Word and I cannot find a way to make this work using the editor. Any suggestions on how to make this happen are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve
You can do this with:
You can do this with:
border-style:none none solid none; border-color: red; border-width: 1px;
However, you would need to enter it as source code since there is no Style dialog for cells, only for the complete table.
A quick test indicates that CK retains this styling (with strict HTML filtering off) provided you can find a way to enter it.
As for pasting from MS Office to any kind of webpage, should be a last resort only as it creates all kinds of issues with nonstandard Microsoftese. Especially a problem are nonstandard 24/32-bit unicode characters which javascript cannot handle.
