Tables

[OzCymru]

Is there, or is there likely to be in the near future, a table facility on here? I use tables a great deal on other PBP forums in which I'm active and I'd love to be able to use them on here if it's possible.

You mean like these?

{table=head]Size | Equivalent
Fine | Gecko, frog, tarantula
Diminutive | Kitten, squirrel, pidgeon
Tiny | Housecat, terrier, eagle
Small | Younger than teenage human
Medium | Teenage and older human
Large | Coupe car, horse, bear
Huge | Box truck, Hummer, train engine
Gargantuan | Tractor-trailer (with trailer), one-bedroom apartment
Colossal | Cessna jet, most office buildings[/table]

There's a function for it, you just need to put the right code in the post.

Here is everything you need to know about using tables. Use that post because none of the special options are actually listed in the vBulletin board FAQ (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/misc.php?do=bbcode#table).

Also note that line breaks in tables require the [br] tag, which has a bug that replaces the square brackets with HTML angle brackets when you reply to or edit a post that uses it. As such, you may have to fix such tags later on. (This bug is also present in the [hr] tag for horizontal rules.)
