This is similar, but not the same, as a previous question.
I want to do the following things:
- Number tables and figures separately
- Put tables exactly where I want them
To do the first one, I just use 'figure' and 'table' environments in the appropriate place. But the table environment doesn't seem work when I use \begin{table}{H}, which stops me being able to do the second thing. Any suggestions?
Correction: I should have said \begin{table}[H]

As Werner noted in a comment, you should have square brackets (
[]) rather than curly braces ({}) around the placement specifier. Also, as doncherry noted in another comment,Hisn't a standard placement specifier.Try
\begin{table}[hp]instead, or if that doesn't work, try\begin{table}[!hp](note the exclamation mark).If you still do not achieve exactly what you want, then
\usepackage{float}and try\begin{table}[H]as Werner suggested.
