Table plugin#

Standard JSPWiki table markup #

See also TextFormattingRules :

• a new line of text starting with a pipe character | indicates the start of a new table row.
• each line corresponds with a table row, containing one or more table cells.
  • a single pipe | starts a new data cell.
  • a double pipe || starts a header cell with different formatting.
• end the table with a line which does not start with a pipe character.

New extra table markup provided by the TablePlugin#

• span multiple columns with |< or ||< to collapse this cell with the previous cell
• span multiple rows with |^ or ||^ to collapse this cell with the cell above
• add css styles to cells with |(<css-style>) or ||(<css-style>)
• add row numbers to a cell with |# or ||#

Example:#

[{Table

||Nr ||A ||< ||C ||<
|#   |a  |b  |c  |(background: peachpuff;)d
|#   |^  |b  |^  |(background: peachpuff;)d
}]

becomes (simulated)

Multi-line table editing#

The standard table markup of JSPWiki requires you to put all data related to a row on a single line of text. (without carriage returns) With the Table plugin, a single row or cell can be entered on multiple lines. You can compare a multi-line table row to a bulleted list, whereby you replace the bullets ('*') with pipes ('|' or '||'). A blank line is used a separator between multi-line rows.

| These cells
| will all appear
| as a single table row

| This is | a second | row

It is also possible to put the contents of a single cell across multiple lines. So it becomes easy to put lots of text and markup inside a single table cell and still keep your markup readable.

| This cell
  is put over 2 lines
| The 2nd cell comes here
  all on the same row!

You can combine mutiline rows with standard wiki table syntax too. As long as a single line contains only one table cell, it is assumed to continue on the next line. Multi-line rows always need to be terminated with a blank lines. Standard wiki table rows may omit the blank separator lines.

| This row has 
| Two cells

| You can also    | use standard wiki markup.
| Here is another | table row

You can also combine the multi line syntax with the |<, |^, |(<css-style>) and |#.

Example:#

[{Table style='border:2px solid tomato; width:50vw;'

|| Heading 1 
|| Heading 2

| This is a magic multi-line cell ...
* with one or ...
* two list bullets
|(background:peachpuff;) And a  peachpuff submarine
