How do you column span with this?

uirise 19 Oct 2007 23:37

I'm trying to make the equivalent to the wikidot.com table of

header
col 1	col 2

Is there any way this can be done?

Through some trial and error, I came up with this as one solution:
Mimic Colspan With Multiple Tables

We are working to include colspan too.

Another solution is to nest a two-column table in the second row.

I'm not sure what you're asking, exactly. Check this snippet out for a way to control layout by using multiple advanced tables.

what would also be great is if there could be certain pre-defined styles to choose between, so that you could just put it into the table tag and don't worry about the rest.

Is there any way to align an entire table?

Stitchy 08 Feb 2008 03:23

… Such as, if I wanted to create a basic character profile to sit on the right side of a page, which is often used on Wikipedia.

Nevermind. I figured it out myself. c:

Try [[table style="align:left"]]

Re: Does anyone know how to get the entire table to left align?

aolivez 17 May 2008 03:40

Clarification: so your source would look like this?

[[table style="align:left"]]
@|| cell 1 || cell 2 ||@

I also tried:
[[<]] … [[/<]]

to no avail!

Re: Does anyone know how to get the entire table to left align?

ickabod 12 Jun 2008 15:45

You need to use the [[table]] syntax for this to work. You can't mismatch.

Here is an example:

[[table style="align:left"]]
[[row]][[cell]] row1 cell1 [[/cell]][[cell]] row1 cell2]][[/row]]
[[row]][[cell]] row2 cell1 [[/cell]][[cell]] row2 cell2]][[/row]]
[[/table]]

lindseymoon 07 Aug 2008 05:46

Um, that doesn't work.

Re: Does anyone know how to get the entire table to left align?

dennyw 08 Aug 2008 18:07

I stumbled on to this syntax and it worked for me

[[table style="align:left"]] [[row]] [[cell]]
|| Foobar || Foobash || Foobang ||
|| bar 1 || bash  1 || bang 1 ||
|| bar 2 || bash  2 || bang 2 ||
[[/cell]][[/row]][[/table]]

Foobar Foobash Foobang bar 1 bash 1 bang 1 bar 2 bash 2 bang 2

Jacob Hielscher 26 Sep 2008 02:38

Genius!

Re: Does anyone know how to get the entire table to left align?

westmoquette 28 Oct 2008 11:58

That's exactly what I was trying to find!

Re: Does anyone know how to get the entire table to left align?

Kath 16 Apr 2009 16:45

Exactly what I was looking for too. Thanks.

Re: Does anyone know how to get the entire table to left align?

elishapeterson 16 Apr 2009 17:20

Here's another solution:

[[div style="width:0"]]
|| Foobar || Foobash || Foobang ||
|| bar 1 || bash  1 || bang 1 ||
|| bar 2 || bash  2 || bang 2 ||
[[/div]]

Foobar	Foobash	Foobang
bar 1	bash 1	bang 1
bar 2	bash 2	bang 2

Centering Text/Images

Miraye 19 May 2008 02:12

Could anyone tell me how to centre the images and text in my cells? Tried [[cell style=" align: center;"]]

Re: Centering Text/Images

Sanguinity 23 Jul 2008 14:14

You can center a line of text by beginning the line with "= ". Similarly, you can center an image with [[=image... ]]. I haven't yet discovered a way of centering the contents of an entire cell.

Re: Centering Text/Images

Gabrys 19 Aug 2008 21:19

you can use

style="text-align: center"
style="text-align: left"
style="text-align: right"

for horizontal align, or

style="vertical-align: top"
style="vertical-align: bottom"

for vertical, you can mix:

style="text-align: center; vertical-align: bottom"

hope this helps!
