Hello,
we have used org-mode for creating HTML content for software
documentation and it beats everything we have tried over the last
couple of years hands down, excellent work!
For one project, I used several statements like this (simplified):
#+HTML: <table><tr><td><img src="./images/icon.png"/></
td><td<code>something</code></td></tr></table>
#+HTML: <table><tr><td><img src="./images/icon.png"/></
td><td<code>other</code></td></tr></table>
The result looks exactly the way we have planned it, however, ideally
one would want to write:
\my-mini-table(something)
\my-mini-table(other)
(with a suitable syntax) in the org source, and this should only be
expanded when exporting the document, so I never need to look at the
HTML code (if I do not want to).
This is probably already possible with org-mode using the html-export-
hook and a little Lisp function. Many thanks in advance for any hints!
Warm regards,
Stefan

Perhaps the easiest way to do this would be to define a macro at the top
of your org file:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+MACRO: special-table #+HTML: <table><tr><td><img src="./images/icon.png"/></td><td<code>something</code></td></tr></table>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Then, any time you wanted the html snippet to appear in the export, you
could place the following in your org file:
{{{special-table}}}
During export this will be replaced by the definition above. (At first I
wasn't sure this would work because of the extra comment notation in the
macro definition, but I tested it and it seemed to work fine.)
For more information on macros, see
http://orgmode.org/org.html#Macro-replacement
Regards,
Matt

???? really ?????
at page 106 of the pdf version, that you can download from the site,
http://orgmode.org/org.pdf
I can read: "Macro replacement"!

I think this is a not, yet?, implemented feature ;-)
*Macro processing* is intended *for export* (release notes)
so, I think, Carsten considered only the macros in the
current file/buffer.
cheers,
Giovanni

Note that you can also use a variable in your macro:
#+MACRO: special-table #+HTML: <table><tr><td><img src="./images/icon.png"/></td><td<code>$1</code></td></tr></table>
{{{special-table(something)}}}
PS: this is not yet documented in the manual.
