Newbie Q: copying table *columns* to clipboard?

K

kj

I'd like to generate a table in a page such that users can select
columns, and copy them into the clipboard. (Better yet, it would
be *great* if I were able to select any rectangular range in the
table, but I'd be happy if I can select only columns.)

One naive approach is to make a "table of tables": i.e. a table
with a single row consisting of several 1-column tables side-by-side.

The problem with this approach is that cells in the side-by-side
tables are not guaranteed to have the same height, so the side-by-side
tables fall out of synch.

How can I achieve what I'm trying to do?

Thanks!

P.S. Is there a better ng for this question?
