Wiki Question - Does the wiki support tables & anchors?

#1 Post by puppyfan12 »

Since there's 2 versions of the CE release it would be good to have 3 columns.

example:

column 1 (application type) | Column 2 (CE standard} | column 3 (CE office)
web browser | Lightweight FF build | Firefox / Iceweasel
email | sypheed-claws | Thunderbird

tables in wiki

#2 Post by Lobster »

you can see dual panels implemented here
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppyHardware/

tables can be created in Composer, NVU or Komposer
and the HTML put between double speech marks "" ""
To use anchors (which I have never done) this is the most
likely method


done in wiki code (probably the most awkward
like so:

Code: Select all

 {{table columns="3" cellpadding="1" cells="BIG;GREEN;FROGS;yes;yes;no;no;no;###"}}
details on wiki

Hope that helps :)

yep, thanks for the links.

I've compiled all the app info (so far) in the wiki for the Community Edition

i was also curious about anchors, this was a big help. actually if you use anchors the old way <a name="start"></a> then the wiki will automatically strip it from your entry!

this works, however. i found it on the wikka wiki site and used it successfully in our puppy wiki:
""<a id="docs"></a>""
sadly, it is not possible to separate politics from free software. free software - politics = unfree software.

I haven't tried using css or xhtml tags on the wiki yet but I'll give your suggestion a try. Thanks for the tip amish!
