I'm primarily a Firefox kinda guy but here is one where Microsoft Explorer 7.0 (or 6.0) has an edge.

How many have seen a table on a website and attempt to copy & paste into excel? Many folks will attest that this is a pain as it brings in all the funky graphics, html links, or adds all the text to a single cell leaving you to spend even more time re-formating everything. There is an easier way to export it to excel if you are using Microsoft Explorer and here's how:

  1. Simply hover your mouse over any table on a website
  2. Right click your mouse and a submenu will appear
  3. Near the bottom of the menu you will see "Export to Microsoft Excel" (click it)

That's it your done!
