Hi Rustom, I think the issue is that you have missed assigning a column (the 3rd) to a group. Also, to simplify things, as stated no the link you gave, you can just specify the start of column groups. Something like the following should work as expected:
* head | / | < |< | < | | some text | and some more | d e | fg | | | | | | Chris On Feb 16, 2012, at 9:27 AM, Rustom Mody wrote: > I am trying to make (and understand!) column groups for html export > According to http://orgmode.org/manual/Column-groups.html having a line > starting / and then showing < for group start and group end makes column > groups. > > When I make and org file containing these 4 lines: > > * head > | / | < > | | < > | > | some text | and some more | d e | fg | > | | | | | > > all that happens on export is that the / < > etc literally appear in the > export! > > Is there something else I should study? > > Org-mode version 7.8.02 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Malone (mal...@ucolick.org) Dept. of Astronomy and Astrophysics UC Santa Cruz 1156 High Street Santa Cruz, CA 95064-1077 phone: 831-459-3809 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
