I see a couple of you guys wanting to use tables but struggling. I decided it's time for some tutorial-making. What you need is 2 things:

- A spreadsheet application (i.e. Microsoft Excel)
- The ability to find and use this icon:

haha

The tag between which the text should be placed is [TABLE][/TABLE]

If you want to use a table, put the data in the cells, copy the used cells (***Not a whole line or column***) and paste it between the Table tags.

PS: Make sure the closing Table-tag is directly after the last text, otherwise you will have an extra row in your table.

Step 1:

And this is what it will look like:




 
If you guys have any questions at all, regarding the tables, don't hesitate to ask
 
Aha, I didn't know you could do that!
The way I do it is to do the table tags and then you type it in like this, with a "|" in between each column:

New Zealand Players|South Africa Players
Sonny Bill Williams|Bryan Habana
Dan Carter|Morne Steyn

Which then looks like:

can you merge cells?

or make the width/height custom?
Click to expand...

You mean in Excel or on the forum?

@ Olyy: I decided to give the Excel tutorial since that is easier for most, in stead of typing themselves. It's just easier to keep track of what you have in the table at the time
 
I didn't even realise you could use excel, certainly a lot easier than going through and typing in all of the "|"s :p
 
See? I explain it in a way so it's easiest to everyone haha
 
These questions might be asked to the person who implemented the tables on the forum. I will ask around for you
 
 
I am familiar with the table mod you are testing now, but it's not working properly, it seems.

With TR you start and end a row, with TD you start and end a column
 
Nah the editor has changed now, so it includes tables in it, so I have had to disable the mod...
 
Are we not able to create tables via this method anymore?
I tried and was unable to.
 
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 40%"]
[TR]
[TD]Test Of New Table[/TD]
[TD]Test of a Column[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]12345[/TD]
[TD]67890[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]67890[/TD]
[TD]12345[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
 
On the new editor, you should see the first button in the third row, in advance view... Click this and it will come up with Table Properties and then you can create your table that way...

Or you can switch to source mode and use the old fashion code... This is the code for the table above

[ TABLE="class: grid, width: 40%"]
[TR]
[TD]Test Of New Table[/TD]
[TD]Test of a Column[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]12345[/TD]
[TD]67890[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]67890[/TD]
[TD]12345[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]




[TABLE="class: grid, width: 40%"]
[TR]
[TD]Test Of New Table[/TD]
[TD]Test of a Column[/TD]

[TD]12345[/TD]
[TD]67890[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]67890[/TD]
[TD]12345[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
 
It was a problem in my profile...
I had to set it to 'full WYSIWYG editor'.

Sorted, cheers.
 
To all you guys out there who are not able to use the Table modification, please enable the full WYSIWYG-editor


Follow these steps:


- Go to Settings
- Under "My Settings", go to "My Account" and select "General Settings"
- Under "Miscellaneous Options", select the option Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing
- Click on the Save Changes button:
