Hi,
I had a problem with floating tables/figures a ways back, found here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg25566.html
The solution, which was simply inserting #+ATTR_LATEX: placement=[H], worked
perfectly.
I just ran into it again, however. my org file has the following order in a
section:
* section
text before table 1
table 1 (featuring both #+CAPTION and #+ATTR_LATEX: placement [H])
text before table 2
table 2 (featuring both #+CAPTION and #+ATTR_LATEX: placement [H])
But it's being exported to pdf like so:
text before table 1
text before table 2
table 1
table 2
The exported .tex has this for table 1:
\begin{table}[htb]
\caption{table 1 caption}
\begin{center}
If I manually change the \begin{table}[htb] line to \begin{table}[H], things
work exactly as I want. Somehow the [H] option just isn't making it
through...
Just to be sure I created an blank org file with only this:
* test
#+CAPTION: test table
#+ATTR_LaTeX: placement=[H]
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
|------+------+------+------|
| test | test | test | test |
| test | test | test | test |
It gets exported to this:
\begin{table}[htb]
\caption{test table}
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{llll}
Did something change between 6.35 and 7.01 or in the LaTeX table options?

I think that placement works fine for figures, but not for tables. In
fact, I cannot find the code that's supposed to do this for tables: I
suspect that it never existed. So unless I'm mistaken, it seems that
tables never got the placement treatment that figures did.

Thanks Nick.
- Whoops on forgetting the = in my first example!
- Is this hard to integrate? Is it possible to pass this option to LaTeX
just as with figures? It only involves overriding [htb] with [H]...

Try the following patch (might be wrong in detail, and its scope might
be too limited, but I hope it's not too far off: at least it seems to
work on your simple table.) It may also be white-space damaged, so some
reformatting may be needed after applying it.

Subject: [PATCH] Process latex placement attribute for tables.
Figures got placement attributes previously, but tables never did.
