Hi all,


I'm a bit clueless with HTML table conversion at the moment.

I currently use pandoc 3.1.2 on x64 and I'm converting some HTML dumps 
into Markdown (gfm).

I read the manpage, the web site docs and googled, but apparently missed 
the crucial pointer so far.


In many cases, by default tables end up as raw HTML in the Markdown output.

I tried to circumvent this by using

     pandoc -f html -t gfm-raw_html

However, instead of the actual table, only the following text is being 
output then:

     [TABLE]

That's obviously not what I want.

If I add something like

-native_divs-native_spans-fenced_divs-bracketed_spans

to my output format spec, nothing is output any more for my affected test file, i.e. the output stays totally empty.


I just want my HTML table to be converted into a corresponding Markdown 
table, at least as good as it can be expressed in Markdown - I'm aware 
that HTML tables allow for more features and in many cases may not be 
converted perfectly or not without some information loss or adaptions.

However just getting the word "TABLE" is the output is too much 
simplified in my eyes, with all table content being completely lost...


Best regards,

   Gunter
