Hi,

I am trying to generate html from RMD files. Would this still work?

Best regards, Venkatesh

Hi Jim and all
Thank you so much because I still look for a way to generate html table using markdown before having your replying.
Venkatesh, to generate html table from markdown using Pandoc, use this command, assuming you want to generate from a file called test.md, the command look like
pandoc -s test.md -o test.html
I'm not familiar with pandoc so other member would give ferther info.

Thanks a lot Jim.

That helped resolve another error I was getting that pandoc was not installed. I still get incorrectly formatted tables. Also, this link suggests not to use knitr::pandoc. Is this different from what I am doing? I just import markdown and use the reader function.

I literally started using R 2 days ago so please excuse if these questions are trivial.

Hi,
I use a program called Pandoc for this. Pandoc has a way to format tables and make them come out properly. You would give it the correct command line options and let it do its thing. I know it works because I have used it before. I would have to look up the Markdown syntax for the tables and the correct options for the command line, but as I said, I know from experience that it works. See http://www.pandoc.org.

Subject: [program-l] RMarkDown: tables in HTML and word output

Hi List,

I am using R for some data analysis, and find that the HTML that gets generated from RMarkDown does not have tables marked up as HTML tables. This makes it harder for a screen reader to read. Is there a way to have RMarkDown generate properly formatted documents? I tried word as well, but the resulting documents do not have any tables.

Thanks in advance for your help.
