Introduced in Tiki3

Use this wiki plugin to display a table using MediaWiki syntax.

This plugin doesn't support things like templates or the !row heading syntax. Column styling overcomes the latter to a degree but, for cross-browser consistency, you are limited by HTML to border= , background= , width= and visibility= . You can also use span= so that a col definition can apply to adjacent columns. tr and td styling overrides col .

• Optionally, first line (prior to the first | ) contains html attributes for the table element.
• Optionally, next line can specify a caption; line starts with |+ followed by optional html attributes that end with a | followed by the caption text.
• Optionally, html attributes for col elements can be specified next on one or more lines starting with a ?
• Each column's attributes start on a new line with ? or on the same line preceded by ?? and become a col
• Optionally, column headings can be specified next on one or more lines starting with a !
• Each column's heading starts on a new line with ! or on the same line preceded by !!
• Optional html attributes for th end with a | followed by text that becomes the text of a th
• Each row, including the first, starts on a new line with |- , optionally followed by html attributes for the tr element
• Each cell starts on a new line with | or on the same line preceded by ||
• Optional html attributes for the td element end with a | followed by the cell text (so data for one cell can have 1 or 2 | characters. Any other | characters are assumed to be part of the cell text.)

This code:

{MWTABLE()} 
|-
| Bill || The little house
|-
| Carol || The big house
{MWTABLE}

Would produce:

Bill
The little house


Carol
The big house

As a reference, under tikineat.css style, it shows as:

This code:

{MWTABLE( wiki_classes="false")} style="width:50%", class="myclass"
