Suppose that I have 3 types of tables in an org file, A latex table, an org-table, and a html-table. How can we to export these table as html tables when org-exporting to html?

# #+BEGIN_LaTeX
# \begin{table}
# \begin{center}
# \begin{tabular}{l c }
# \hline
#       & Model 1 \\
# \hline
# (Intercept) & $0.06$       \\
#       & $(0.10)$     \\
# x           & $1.02^{***}$ \\
#       & $(0.10)$     \\
# \hline
# R$^2$       & 0.53         \\
# Adj. R$^2$  & 0.53         \\
# Num. obs.   & 100          \\
# RMSE        & 1.05         \\
# \hline
# \multicolumn{2}{l}{\scriptsize{$^{***}p<0.001$, $^{**}p<0.01$, $^*p<0.05$}}
# \end{tabular}
# \caption{Statistical models}
# \label{table:coefficients}

    How do you want LaTeX table to be exported? In case exporting it as an image is OK, then you might be interested in this thread stackoverflow.com/questions/7467870/org-mode-html-export also, look at the by-backend macro which allows you to export the same block (of code) differently, depending on the backend (LaTeX blocks can be also inserted as blocks of code): orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/…

Thanks to wvxvw for pointing to the answer. I don't deserve any credit, just gathering the information here.

The key thing here is to use the header that will export in latex directly when exporting to latex (C-e-C-l-l).

But it will generate an image first when exporting to html.(C-e-C-h-h)

you need to put the following in your .emacs as well:

(setq org-babel-latex-htlatex "htlatex")
(defmacro by-backend (&rest body)
`(case (if (boundp 'backend) (org-export-backend-name backend) nil) ,@body))

You can have more info about this here

So here is the way to do it. 

#+header: :results (by-backend (html "results.png") (t "raw"))
#+header: :results (by-backend (pdf "latex") (t "raw"))
#+BEGIN_SRC latex
\begin{table}
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{l c }
\hline
  & Model 1 \\
\hline
(Intercept) & $0.06$       \\
  & $(0.10)$     \\
x           & $1.02^{***}$ \\
  & $(0.10)$     \\
\hline
R$^2$       & 0.53         \\
Adj. R$^2$  & 0.53         \\
Num. obs.   & 100          \\
RMSE        & 1.05         \\
\hline
\multicolumn{2}{l}{\scriptsize{$^{***}p<0.001$, $^{**}p<0.01$, $^*p<0.05$}}
\end{tabular}
\caption{Statistical models}
\label{table:coefficients}
\end{center}
\end{table}
