Hi there. I know next to nothing when it comes to Phpbb. I have recently created a forum and am trying to find out if there is a way to enable being able to use html on it instead of bb code?

HTML is disabled due to the inherent risks of what that code may contain. Not that it'll hack your site, but users can embed content that you'd rather not have on your site.

What is it you want users to include that bbCode doesn't allow?

Why do you need to use tables? Isn't these markup enough for you?

You can create custom BBCode in phpBB3.
