HTML Table styling

[vicotec]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I need to generate a docx file containing a html table. However, the default styling of the table has no cellpadding whatsoever, makign it look a bit ugly. I could manually create the table, row for row, cell for cell, in phpword, but that seems like an unnecessary workaround.

Describe the solution you'd like

More stylings possible for HTML tables, e.g. cellPadding, or working margins/paddings in table cells

Describe alternatives you've considered

Manually parsing my html string and creating the table in phpword

@vicotec Hi, Could you send me some code, for analyzing it, please ?

@Progi1984 sure thing!
just to make sure, I've also updated to version 1.2.0, but the issue still exists.

        Settings::setOutputEscapingEnabled(true);

        $word = new PhpWord();
        $section = $word->addSection();

        $writer = IOFactory::createWriter($word, 'Word2007');
        $html = '<table><tr><th style="text-align: left; vertical-align: top; border: 1px solid black; padding: 4px; font-weight: bold;">test A</th><td style="text-align: left; vertical-align: top; border: 1px solid black; padding: 4px;">test B</td></tr></table>';

        Html::addHtml($section, $html, false, false);

        $name = 'printtest.docx';

        $writer->save($name);
