I just found out that we can actually construct tables using BBCode in ZetaBoards? I just know [TABLE][/TABLE]. Can anyone tell me the other codes that help to construct a nice table? |

It's fairly complicating, if you ask me. It's very easy to lose track of what you've written and which column each bit of writing is in. Anyway, as you know it's [table][/table], but you don't know much else. Once you get the grasp of it, it's easy to remember. Now, [table]Some content[/table] would return this;
To add a title to the table, you first have to define how many columns you want, so we'll tackle adding x columns first. If you wanted 3 columns, you would do the following; [table=3]Content[c]Content[c]Content[/table]. The "3" after "table" tells the ZetaBoards BBCode parser how many columns you want, and the [c] bit tell's it when to go to the next column/row. I'm sure that you will want to add more than one row of data, so to add a new row, then you just add another [c], and 3 more columns will appear. For example, [table=3]Content[c]Content[c]Content[c]New Row[c]New Row[c]New Row[/table] would return the following;
Adding a header is possibly the most simple bit of the table itself, just add a comma and then the title of the table. [table=3,This is a table's title]Content[c]Content[c]Content[c]New Row[c]New Row[c]New Row[/table] would bring up something along the lines of:
And then, to change the first row to a set of "subtitles", just add ,1 after the title of the table, like so: [table=3,This is a table's title,1]Subtitle[c]Subtitle[c]Subtitle[c]Content[c]Content[c]Content[c]New Row[c]New Row[c]New Row[/table] The above piece of code would make the table like this;
I hope that helped and that I didn't confuse you at all; I know that tables can be confusing and I can often make things confusing. Edited by Kieran M, Oct 18 2008, 01:34 PM.

No problem. It can be a very confusing BBCode. Just keep using the Preview button and you shouldn't have any trouble. |
