Is there any guide/suggestions/example code that would help someone code a collapsible navbox from scratch? - Bodhisattva 16:32, 29 February 2008 (UTC)


 * You have to configure your MediaWiki:Common.css and install Extension:ParserFunctions to get your Navbox to work correctly. I did this but I still have extra div and span tags, :( -PatPeter, [[Image:Tournesol.png|20px]] MediaWiki Support Team  06:22, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Lining up the table text correctly...

Can someone take a look at this page's source: http://www.windrep.org/Community

and perhaps tell me what I have to do in order to get all the columns to line up. I realise that some of the rows won't line up because some have more lines than others, but...I thought I had enough space to make the columns work out.

 * Set the table row style so that they each take 1/3 of the width, which should solve your problem. --Skizzerz talk - contribs [[Image:Tournesol.png|20px]] MediaWiki Support Team  03:05, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Currently, I have the tables set like this: {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:left;width:90%" which leaves me with a 10% buffer. Is there something else I can do?
 * - style="background-color:#efefef;"

 * See W:Help:Table, you can specify each header or column as a relative percentage or pixel width --Zven 05:38, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
