Creating a Table
Beginning the Table
- Start by using one of our templates named "Prettytable"
- Begin the table template by using two braces " {{ "
- Type the name of the table: Prettytable
- End the table template with two braces going the opposite way " }} "
- The braces " { " are just above the enter key, are also with the brackets " [ " and are used with the shift button
Example
{{prettytable}}
Syntax: Data inside the Table
- A table consists of rows and columns
- Each row is started with " |- "
- The first character is the shift of the " \ " directly above the enter key
- The second character is a dash, or minus sign
- Each column is separated by two lines: " || "
Example
|- ||Department||Frequency||Tone||District
Additional Syntax
- You can use some HTML code in wiki pages
- To center your text in the rows use:
align="center"
- To add a background color to a row use:
style="background:silver"
