 * A “table” box? That makes no sense and would be incorrect markup anyway. A table
   is used for tabular content – not to enhance text. That would be done in your
   styles.css file. CSS is used to style markup, not the other way around.

 * Found it TinyMCE advanced plugin, Settings, Add Table.
 * Thanks
