I haven't seen support for the table feature in this forum. Not very important, just that it will be helpful for managing some topics, like my guide topics. Not only me, anyone who wants to use it will be helpful. For me, I wont have to rely on a rough copy on my hdd like I always do.

Let know whats you plan on this.

It would be very nice to have the option to make tables using bbcode. For example threads like 'personal bests' or competition threads could get a lot more useful when using tables to display the data.

At the moment the forum supports BBCode but not the table tag, see the test table I made below:

[table]
[th]Car[/th][th]Time trial[/th][th]Multiplayer[/th]
Castellona BayMcLaren F1 GTR55:00051:000McLaren MP4-12C56:00052:000[/table]

and later on a comment on this:

I've had a quick look into adding this feature. It isn't a supported tag by default, you need to manually code it in as a new BBCode. It would appear that it may be a bit of a security risk to allow table tags, so I won't be adding it at this stage. Sorry rrobb! I know it would be a very useful feature for our more trustworthy forumers, but I wouldn't want the feature to compromise the forums.

I thought that's what you meant just wanted clarification.

I'll look into it but no promises I can get it

[ABDmaster]

Okay. No problem if can't do.

Thanks.

Some problem found. When toggling the editor to Visual mode, the 2nd table which I plan to use it getting messed up. Formats like fonts, bold, centers etc are making problems with the table in visual mode.

Yes and another thing I saw is that the table always spans the full length of the window. So there is a lot of spacing between columns.

Try adding a couple extra in between to see if that helps.

The bbcode is very simple in nature by splitting up the width of the post.

Keep in mind users resolutions will be different than yours.
