Hi,
I wonder how to place several tables consecutively in Latex?
The page with the text right before the first table has a little space but not enough for the first table, so the first table is to be placed on the top of the next page, although I use "\begin{table}[!h]" for it.
The second table does not fit into the place in the rest of the page of the first table, so I think I might use longtable for it to span the rest of the page and the top of the next page. Similarly, I use longtable for the third table.
The latex code is as follows:
... % some text
\begin{table}[!h]
\caption{Table 1. \label{tab:1}}
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{c c}
...
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\end{table}
\begin{center}
\begin{longtable}{ c c }
\caption{Table 2. \label{tab:2}}\\
...
\end{longtable}
\end{center}
\begin{center}
\begin{longtable}{ c c }
\caption{Table 3. \label{tab:3}}\\
...
\end{longtable}
\end{center}
... % some text
In the compiled pdf file it turns out that the order of the tables is messed up. The first table is placed behind the second and third one, and the second one spans the page with text before the tables and the next page with the third one following it.
I would like to know how I can make the three tables appear consecutively in order, and there are no space left blank between them and between the text and the tables?
Or if what I hope is not possible, what is the best strategy then?
Thanks and regards!
EDIT:
Removing [!h] does not make improvement, the first table is still behind the second and the third.
