Adding Tables

Adding tables is fairly simple but time consuming.

To add a a table you need a {|

To have the boxes visible add Border=1 to the above line

Then the first element of each row is preceded by |- on a separate line.

Each element is preceded by a |

All of the formatting icons can be used within each element.

You need a | for each element of the array, even if the field is blank.

At the end of the table you need a |-

followed by a |}

There are many many more instructions that can be found in the Wiki Help Documentation (GoodLuck)

So:-

Sample Table Caption
Character	Function	Discussion
{-	Start Table	Basic formatting code can be used within tables- this is bold
pipe-	New Row Following	Bold Itallics
pipe	Element identifier	THere is a way of dislaying special characters, but I cant work it out
pipe}	Table End Delimiter	Don't forget this one
