Why is the display of tabular info in WordPress so difficult?
One can edit a simple table in HTML and it looks fine in Visual mode. But, when after saving/publishing the table isn’t displayed the same way. Cell alignment is ignored, and font sizes can be quite different. The tabular data that looked fine in Visual mode, looks awful when published.
The spreadsheets from Google docs have been suggested as an option using the Inline Google Docs plugin:

The first attempt to use this gives a table that doesn’t even look like a table. The screenshot from the example

shows a nice table, even with color, but doesn’t show the trick on how to get that to work.Why can’t I display a Google spreadsheet like this with WordPress?

Any suggestions? What have I missed?
Thanks for any help with this.
