The **~RichTable** [[Help:WikiPlugin|plugin]] is a plugin that takes off from the [[Help:OldStyleTablePlugin|OldStyleTable]] plugin. It allows a user to specify arbitrary properties of ##<table>##, ##<tr>## and ##<td>## with a very simple markup. This plugin is included for legacy only. We recommend to use [[Help:MediawikiTablePlugin|Mediawiki tables]] instead. == Syntax == The contents of each cell are individually processed by the ~BlockParser. This means that you can do interesting things like put **invoke plugins**, use **enumerated lists** etc within each cell! A ##"-"## (dash) at the start of a new line represents a new row in the table. A ##"|"## (vertical bar or pipe) at the start of a new line represents a cell. === Attributes for the tags === A line that starts with a ##"~*"## (star or asterisk) after a ##"|"## is parsed for attributes for the corresponding cell. Attributes for the table are given on line that starts with a ##"~*"##, only if the line appears before any other line except whitespace. A line that starts with a ##-## is always parsed for attributes since it can't have any content, unlike a cell. === Cell contents === Cell contents are processed by the ~BlockParser. Any line that starts with a ##"~*"## anywhere other than the table attribute line is treated as normal content. Any line that starts with whitespace is also treated as content. Any cell line that does not have a ##"~*"## after the ##"|"## is treated as normal content. All content lines that follow a cell line are added to that cell. They can contain arbitrary text except the above cases. If there is no cell in the current row, content lines are dropped silently. === Special characters === The two special characters ##"~~"## and ##"?>"## should be escaped as ##"\~~"## and ##"?\>"##. I haven't discovered any other characters yet that might need to be escaped. This is required for the block parser to work. === Attributes === We allow attributes with or without quotes ("): {{{ border=1, cellpadding="5" style="font-family: sans-serif; border-top:1px solid #dddddd;" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" }}} == Example == <<RichTable *border=1, cellpadding=5, bgcolor=#f0f8f8, width=75%, align=center - |* colspan=3, align=center HomePage - |* colspan=2 [http://phpwiki.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/phpwiki/trunk/themes/default/images/png.png] |* rowspan=2 This cell actually has a plugin invocation inside it! <?plugin BackLinks ?\> - bgcolor=white | # One # Two | * Foo * Bar - bgcolor=cyan This line gets dropped ... no cell to contain it! |* bgcolor=#f0f0ff, align=center One paragraph Another paragraph? |* align=left This cell uses the row color | I wish this cell had a nested table inside it! :( >> The above table is rendered from: {{{ <<RichTable *border=1, cellpadding=5, bgcolor=#f0f8f8, width=75%, align=center - |* colspan=3, align=center HomePage - |* colspan=2 [http://phpwiki.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/phpwiki/trunk/themes/default/images/png.png] |* rowspan=2 This cell actually has a plugin invocation inside it! <?plugin BackLinks ?\> - bgcolor=white | # One # Two | * Foo * Bar - bgcolor=cyan This line gets dropped ... no cell to contain it! |* bgcolor=#f0f0ff, align=center One paragraph. Another paragraph? |* align=left This cell uses the row color | I wish this cell had a nested table inside it! :( >> }}} == Known Bugs == * The plugin can't nest itself. Thus nested tables are currently not possible. See [[Help:MediawikiTablePlugin|Mediawiki tables]] to have nested tables. == Author == * [[http://www.it.iitb.ac.in/~sameerds/phpwiki/index.php/RichTablePlugin|Sameer D.
