Can'd deleta a table from email

more options

My question is realted to Firefox and Gmail. As far as I know this can looks like a gmail issue, but seems to be firefox.

When I am trying to compose mail, my footer in email contains a table. When I am trying to forward email and delete a table this is not possible. I am able to delete all the data from the table but empty cells, and space make a big empty gap.

In other browsers like Chrome, or Opera I can delete this footer table without any issue. If you have a email address where I can send email with this sample footer I will be happy to do it.

fyi : I have had the same issue with Yahoo Mail for years. Sometimes it deletes and other times it does not. Sometimes just have to click before it and hit the backspace a lot of bunch of times and it finally deletes.

I believe this is a formatting issue of which ever mail you use or by the person who sent it to you as 1 format then to you so 2 format so sometimes gets stuck.

I don't know if this will help in a footer, but if you have some line breaks before and after the table and select those as well so your selection completely surrounds the tab, then instead of just removing content from within the table, delete may remove the entire table.
