A plugin that lets you grab an HTML table from a URL by ID or Class, and echo it out onto a page via shortcode. Use your own stylesheets and responsiveness with on-page table elements rather than ugly iframe embeds of offsite data.

[getthetable url="http://www.itjon.com/getthetable" id="getthetable" mobile="600" tablesorter] - The tablesorter argument adds the tablesorter js and css from cdn.ucb.org.br and applies it to your table
