Purpose
To make it simpler to align the columns in tables with less wikicode.
Usage
Place {{Table alignment}}
just before the table and then add some classes to the table.
classname | Purpose |
---|---|
defaultleft |
Align all table cells left by default |
defaultcenter |
Align all table cells center by default |
defaultright |
Align all table cells right by default |
colNleft |
Align the cells in column N left, where N is a number |
colNcenter |
Align the cells in column N center, where N is a number |
colNright |
Align the cells in column N right, where N is a number |
Limitations
- Column numbers up to
col19
are supported. A table can have more columns but they cannot be aligned with this method. - On tables using
rowspan
orcolspan
, using the classes may not work well on those rows because the alignment appears in wrong cells. Normal table code likestyle="text-align: left/center/right;"| cell content
can be added to individual cells, both to get the wanted alignment and override unwanted alignment. - Does not work with static row numbers table. So remove that template and use code directly. For example:
{{static row numbers}}{{Table alignment}}{{mw-datatable}} {| class="wikitable sortable static-row-numbers col1left mw-datatable" style=text-align:right;
- See example table with above wikitext.
Example
{{Table alignment}}
{| class="wikitable defaultcenter col1left col4right"
