Alert Tables

There's a new bbcode in town, and it's called Table.

Here's an example (quote me to see how it works) along with the developer's guide to the features.

col1col2col3
row2row2row2
row3row3row3

Quote:

Introduction to options:
example: [table="option1;option2=value;option3='this is a long value with space';option4=value1,value2,value3"]
The whole option list should be wrapped with quotes.
Options are seperated by a semicolon
If an option has a value it is assigned with "equal to" mark. (option2)
If the value contains blanks or special characters it has to be wrapped with apostrophes. (option3)
If an option has more than one value they are seperated by a comma. (option4)

Description of options:
head
This option defines the first line as head, so the first row is shown as head of the table. If the table sould be sorted, the head is not sorted.

sort=1d,2,3
This defines the table to be sorted by column 1, then column 2, then column 3. The "d" after the first colum specifies the order: descending (default: ascending)

autonum=1 (equal to autonum) autonum=a autonum=A
Defines that a new first column containing a numbering should be inserted.
1 -> 1, 2, 3, 4, ... , 999, 1000, ....
a -> a, b, c, ... , aa, ab, ... , zz
A -> A, B, C, ... , AA, BB, ... , ZZ

autonumtitle=oneword autonumtitle='long value with spaces'
Defines the title of the autonum-column. Can be left empty.

width=123px width=45em width=67%
Defines the width of the table.

css=myclass
Defines the aditional css class of the whole table. Possible values have to be defined in admincp.
The value is prepended by stg_table_ so the resulting css class with above example would be stg_table_myclass
The css code has to be added to "Additional CSS Definitions" of your style (AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> (Dropdown) Main CSS -> Additional CSS Definitions)

Introduction to special options (formating cells and rows):
example: {option1=value1}{option2=value2}
These "special" options can be written as the very first content of a cell to format it.

Description of special options:
{colsp=5}
Defines a colspan from current cell with the length of 5 cells

{css=myclass}
Defines the css class of the current row. This value is only valid in the first cell of a row and should be the first option (colspan defined after it - currently reversing the order works, too).

Another great hack, vm, thank you. I love how the header row is in the :ff: header style.

colsp spans horizontally. Is there any way to have a cell span vertically?

You use the | character, like in the table in the OP.

Actually the | is to separate columns. I don't know if there's a way to span vertically, but then I haven't even read the instructions I pasted above. I recommend experimentation. If it doesn't work, it won't work. :)

Not really, but they'll come in handy from time to time, eg. for scorecards when we have games and competitions.

The tables would be even more useful if we had Brady Bunch smilies.

They're not, there's just two extra columns in between for the dotted lines.

Good. The quote shading is not quite perfect, but otherwise the layout is good.

What about autonum?

Hmm. It's a bit overenthusiastic. I suppose quotes look like embedded tables.

Is there / can you define a class with no shading and no borders? For smilie art perhaps...
