How to use [table] tags?
« on: July 20, 2010, 17:52:14 »
My sig is a bit long as you can see, so i wanted to use [table] tags. But, i have no idea how to. So, does anyone feel like posting a tutorial? In the meantime i'll use is.gd to be able to cram those tags in there.

use:

Code: [Select]
[table][tr][td] content [/td][td] content [/td] [/tr] [/table]

the table starts and ends the table structure.

tr stands for a row.

Inside the row, you have cells (td). Each row starts and end with tr (short for table row) and each cell starts and ends with td (table data)

This is basically a simplified way of html tables. Google for html tables for more information on the subject.

Yeah, though theoretically, you don't need to use tables to just put images next to eachother. Just don't hit enter after you written the img closingtag. Only if you want to put a large image on the left or right and a multiline text fragment on the other side:

Example by using small part of my profile (see left of this post)

     
    
     My name is LPChip
      Trying never is a bad thing. It allows you to learn.
      I'm an administrator.
    

and the code:

Code: [Select]
[table]
  [tr]
    [td]
      [img]http://nifflas.lpchip.nl/index.php?action=dlattach;attach=3809;type=avatar[/img]
    [/td]
    [td]
      [b]My name is LPChip[/b]
      Trying never is a bad thing. It allows you to learn.
      I'm an administrator.
    [/td]
  [/tr]
[/table]

Btw, I added spaces to make it look nice, but these spaces also appear in the output. They're not necessary. :)
