FireFox - How do I copy Tables and Paste into Excel?

[metroplex]

I noticed that if i copy a table from a HTML page when browsing with Firefox and paste it into Excel, it puts all the info into 1 cell.

If I copy the table using IE, the table is pasted properly.

Is there an extension for Firefox that allows this function?

What happens if you Paste Special and treat it as unformatted text?

Hey, that worked! Thanks a lot!

Or just go to the data menu and select text to columns.

I wanted the simplicity of just copying and directly pasting the information ala IE and Excel.

Then why not just keep using IE?

Firefox Extensions work very well to block malicious javascript, ads, and other stupid pop-ups. With Internet Exploder I had to run several programs and even then they weren't working as effectively as FireFox w/ the extensions. I used IE for like 7-8 years and just recently switched to FireFox.
