Emacs 24.3
org-mode 7.8.11

I am trying to export org file into html, and the result html needs to show
a table rather than a list.

I understand that

|-----+-----|
|     |       |
|     |       |
....

would export itself into a table.  But this form of contents is not easy to
read and edit, though it might be my personal preference.
I prefer,

* ....
-
-

style.

Is there anyway to export the org list into an html table?
