Now i want to export that table to an image (PNG or something}.

It is possible? How can i do that?

The easiest way to do that would be to enclose your tabular in a document, with the standalone class.

\documentclass[a4paper, 11pt]{standalone}
\begin{document}

    \begin{tabular}{}

    \end{tabular}       

\end{document}

Then compile it with dvipng or use ImageMagick to convert the div into a png.

The credits go to Martin Scharrer.

divpng is also available for windows. You could also use ImageMagick to convert the div in an png. Apparently MikTex has a program called dvipng.exe that converts dvi's to png's. – Laura Jul 12 '12 at 14:30
@Ricardo Please note the difference between preview and crop option of standalone package. More about it here: tex.stackexchange.com/q/63045/3235 – percusse Jul 12 '12 at 22:08
