Tables

[Lost Student]

How do I create tables in a post? Is it just not enabled with vBulletin on this site? I thought I would just be able to insert an HTML table but it did not work.

Thanks in Advance.

Lebowski is the one who can normally answer these questions. If you don't get a response, boardmail him.

Pelagius is the king of tables, charts and the incline bench press. He's your man.

Thanks. I assume that the feature has not been activated by the powers that be. Lebowski, how difficult would it be to install that package?

There is a [table] tag addon for Vbulletin (no reason why that couldn't be installed: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=107985). We tend to prefer adding VB codes rather than enabling embedding of HTML code directly.

Right now the best way to include a table is by using the "code" tag since it uses a fixed width font and honors white space.


[code]
Your table here
[/code]


So for example. You can easily include a table like the following:

---------------------------------------------
Assets               Liabilities         
-------------------  ------------------------
Current Assets   50  Current liabilities   20
PPE              50  Debt                  30
                     Net worth             50
---------------------------------------------
Total           100  Total                100
---------------------------------------------

So you are basically getting the <pre> tag from HTML.

Thanks! I will give that a try.
