Markdown itself does not support tables, you need to fall back to pure html tables as per the spec

Well at least the Pandoc markdown dialect supports three types of tables: http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/README.html#tables

I have to admit that none of them satisfies me completely (sometimes I wish for mediawiki table support) - but at least they are faithful to the principle to be recognizable as tables in text editors.
