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

align="center"

• To add a background color to a row use:

style="background:silver"
