Hello, thanks for your answers.
The first 2 solutions imply the use of javascript, but how do you use that while working offline? I'm a bit confused on what to do. Besides, what I have is not a table, but a list of links.
The solution w/ excel seems to work, except that when you c/p the text from excel into sigil the link references get lost, and you get sthg like
Code:
<a href="">link text</a>
In the meantime I might have found another workaround, but it is a bit complicated. I can turn the code into a two column table (search and replace in notepad, save and open the file w/ excel), in which the first column is the link attribute and the second the name. Then w/ excel I sort the latter, and finally I turn it the other way around back to a link list.
It might work.
