I am writing a program in VB that will query a PHP application on the internet with data from an Excel sheet and copy+paste the output (a table) from that app to a new Excel sheet. This would be going very smoothly except for when I copy the table from Internet Explorer to Excel, the entire table is pasted into a single column. When I copy from Firefox, however, each column of the table is pasted into its own column in Excel. This is mostly a problem because I can't get VB to control Firefox.

Any ideas for why this is happening? Or how to remedy?

Here is the PHP app I am querying- http://drdoctor.cropsci.uiuc.edu/smallRNA.php. Give it something like TTGACAGAAGAGAGTGAGCACTCGTAT to see an example of a table I am using.
