Hello,

The method replaceVariableByHTML allows to replace a placeholder by a HTML, transforming the HTML to Word. You can use almost any tag and CSS style to add contents and style them.

For example you can set width of the whole table:

$html = '<table border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="400">
            <tbody>
                <tr>
                    <td style="background-color: yellow">1_1</td>
                    <td rowspan="3" colspan="2">1_2</td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td>Some random text.</td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td>
                        <ul>
                            <li>One</li>
                            <li>Two <b>and a half</b></li>
                        </ul>
                    </td>
                </tr>
            </tbody>
        </table>';

$docx->replaceVariableByHTML('VAR', 'inline', $html, array('isFile' => false, 'parseDivsAsPs' => true, 'downloadImages' => false));

This code uses the attribute width, but you can use CSS as well.

We recommend you to read the documentation available on:

http://www.phpdocx.com/documentation/introduction/html-to-word-PHP

http://www.phpdocx.com/documentation/cookbook/convert-html-to-word

and the examples included in the package.

Regards.
