Help: Tables
Tables are made up of columns (vertical), rows (horizontal) and cells. In Easy Markup, each cell can be defined separately or an entire row of cells defined.
- Start a table -
"{|"
- Start a new row -
"|-"
- Start a new cell -
"|"
- Start a heading cell - "!"
- End a table -
"|}"
To put several cells on the same line, separate them with double bars ("||"
)
Here is a sample table:
What you type | What it looks like | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
{| !Col1 !Col2 |- |A |B |- |C||D |}
|
|
Table Classes
The "class" (format) of a table is given on the first line of a table after the "{|
. Built-in classes are:
- blank (e.g.
{| blank
) - No lines separating columns or rows - pretty (e.g.
{| pretty
) - Gray title line, like table above
Styling Table Elements
Table columns, rows, cells, or whole tables can be styled individually to combine cells and give them styling classes.
- Style a table - "
{|
class style" - Style a row - "
|-
