CTA Table BB Code 1.1.1

[DaveL]

By chance did this happen to help fix the blank space issue? I haven't had the chance to try testing it again.

It cleared up the blank space completly.

My problem I was using http://c61.su/bbtab.html to create the tables. However where I was copying and pasting, some links and image containers were missing open/closed brackets etc.

Lesson I learnt was not to rush in future!

Hello,
Thanks Brogan for this brilliant resource...
I was wondering, is it possible to get this to work in an actual page?

I've created a fantastic table, but need to embed it, if possible, into a node page - as opposed to a thread.
Is it possible?

I have used this, after making a HTML 5 / CSS 3 table, but couldn't get it responsive...
So I would be grateful to know if I can get this on a page?
Many thanks.

 

[Glockie]

Hmm can I embed it in an iframe?

 

[Paul B]

Pages support HTML so just use standard table markup, rather than bb code.

I tried, but couldn't get the element right, using media queries.
Became a damn nightmare to display what I needed, so I used this to create tables instead...

As far as I'm aware, using bbcode in pages is not possible at this time. You'd have to request or make an add-on for this functionality, I'm guessing.

If you'd like, PM me and I'll see if I can help you get the HTML/CSS working properly.

How do I put the Table BBcode so it shows up in my tool bar? I have added the custom code but it wont show up in the tool bar.

 

[Paul B]

You will need to add the icon data as required.

You will need to add the icon data as required.

I do not understand what to do.
My template on the site uses by default "fontawesome" icons. I need to be able to assign those icons to the new bbcode. I do not know how. I am not some smart programmer or anything. I need a guide or something.

 

[Kosuki07]

Big problem,
I have to manually enter in the code, then on top of that once the table is in, it creates a 3 page gap from the top of the post to the bottom.
HI I am BOB

blah

from the end of BOB to the table in the post is a HUGE GAP

Hi @Brogan. I've uploaded your bb code table addon and am having trouble with some code that keeps reappearing even though I keep deleting it. I'm trying to create the table in the RM and this is what keeps happeningsee code at the top)

This is the code. The code that keeps reappearing after deleting it is on the last line.

Any ideas why this is happening?

 

[Paul B]

Your code is malformed somewhere.
Orphaned tags are typical in that case.

 

[NinaMcI]

ok thanks. Will have to go through with a fine tooth comb.

 

[Paul B]

A quick look shows there are four orphaned tags right at the end, outside the /container tag.

As well as td tags between the /table and /container tags.

Plus an extra /td tag in front of the /table tag.

 

[NinaMcI]

Yes, those are the ones that kept reappearing after deleting. But I've found there was a space between 2 tags so problem sorted

I have another question: is there a way to freeze the header row so that it doesn't disappear as you scroll down?

 

[Paul B]

No, that's not possible.

 

[NinaMcI]

ok

 

[Olly Wood]

Is it possible to make one column span the whole row ?

 

[Paul B]

I presume you mean to make one cell span all of the columns?

You would need to create a new colspan tag.

 

[jovan]

Add-on installed, CSS edited - but it doesn't appear to be working.

Anything within [ table ] tags will not display at all.

Any suggestions?
