A table copy and pasted from MS Office to Confluence is not sortable

XMLWordPrintable

      Issue description:
      The table copy/pasted from MS office is not sortable even making the first row sortable.

      Repro:

      • Create a little Table in Excel
      • Copy it
      • Go to Confluence and paste it into the editor
      • Mark the first row as Header
      • Save the page
      • Check if the table has the sorting feature
        -> It has not

      Workaround:

      • Go to the editor again
      • Cut out the (unsortable) table
      • Paste it again
      • Mark the first row as Header
      • Save the page
        -> Now the table is sortable

      If that does not work, please install the The confluence source editor, then edit the page to:

      1. Remove the row "<colgroup> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> <col/> </colgroup>"
      2. Replace all "td" tag to "th" tag for the first row of the table. For example, the column name "Number" will need to change from "<td>Number</td>" to "<th>Number</th>".
