 * Dear all,
 * This looks like a fantastic plugin! Thank you so much for your work.
 * I would like to use it to display the content of a csv file which is hosted on
   Dropbox. I tried the following line of code but it does not display the table:
 * `[table file="https://www.dropbox.com/s/rh0kevgcpphhg45/test.csv"][/table]`
 * Could anyone advise me how to display a csv file which is hosted on Dropbox?
 * Thankfully,
 * ~Robert

 * Hello orschiro,
    I’m glad if you like Easy Table 🙂 However, at this time. Easy
   Table does not supports external link such as including (but not limited to) 
   Dropbox and Google Spreadsheet.

 * Dear takien,
 * Thank you so much for your response!
 * So, [this](http://i.imgur.com/DYjFfuz.png) example only works because the file
   is hosted on the same domain than the blog?

 * It’s actually not restricted to ‘same domain’, but for Google Drive and Dropbox,
   there’s should be a redirect to access it’s direct link which is Easy Table currently
   not capable to handle this.

 * Thanks takien!
 * In fact, appending `?raw=1` to the URL seems to solve the problem.
