Basic code

This method is rather unpredictable, especially if you need the list of Contents (TOC) to show and/or captions underneath either or both of the pictures.


N.B. If the image has no "built in" border you need to use |thumb| not |frame| as you cannot cotrol the size of the image with |frame|.

This causes problems with getting the line spacing correct for every viewer.


See Adding Content to The Wiki ~ Images and Tables for explanation of codes for images.

Using tables to control layout on a page

How tables are constructed

A table is created by starting a line with a "|" character, separating each cell with a "|", and ending each row with a "|".

For example, a 3x3 table is created with:


|cell 1|cell 2|cell 3|
|cell 4|cell 5|cell 6|
|cell 7|cell 8|cell 9|


The entire table is encased with curly brackets and a vertical bar character (a pipe).

So use {| to begin a table, and |} to end it. Each one needs to be on its own line:


{|

table code goes here

|}


To start a new table row, type a vertical bar and a hyphen on its own line: "|-".

The codes for the cells in that row will start on the next line.


The Code

{| border="1"
|-
| Content of Cell 1 || Content of Cell 2 || Content of Cell 3
|-
| Content of Cell 4 || Content of Cell 5 || Content of Cell 6
|-
| Content of Cell 7 || Content of Cell 8 || Content of Cell 9
|}


The Result

Content of Cell 1 Content of Cell 2 Content of Cell 3
Content of Cell 4 Content of Cell 5 Content of Cell 6
Content of Cell 7 Content of Cell 8 Content of Cell 9


You can add a caption above the table

{| border="1"
|+THIS IS THE CAPTION
|-
| Content of Cell 1 || Content of Cell 2 || C Content of Cell 3
|}


THIS IS THE CAPTION
Content of Cell 1 Content of Cell 2 C Content of Cell 3


Type the codes for each table cell in the next row, starting with a bar.


{|
|+ The table's caption If you don't want a caption, leave out this row.
|-
| cell codes go here
| more cells in the same row here
|-
| cells in the next row go here
| more cells in the same row here
|}


cell codes go here more cells in the same row here
cells in the next row go here more cells in the same row here


Cells can be separated with either a new line and new bar "|", or by a double bar "||" on the same line.

Both produce the same output:

{|
|-
|Cell 1 || Cell 2 || Cell 3
|-
|Cell A
|Cell B
|Cell C
|}


Cell 1 Cell 2 Cell 3
Cell A Cell B Cell C
