test

horizontial rule? maybe im typing funny, but when i entered in that code, it opened up the openoffice spreadsheet.


testing it again. okay, must have been my crazy fingers doing crazy things.

Tables are a mess in SMF because they don't show proper borders

butthis herebe
apropertable!

Teletype just makes the font fixed-width
so stuff can align, and code blocks


Code: [Select]
[b]ignore[/b] [i]all bbcode[/i] [quote]put into them[/quote] and makes everything monospaced
so code lines up properly as in most IDEs. It's also useful for making lists

int main()
{
    printf("hello world");
    return 0;
}

table column     pie
yes it is        maybe

all a table is, is spacing words apart?



I like those block/grid type fonts for some things. finanial stuff is cool with it.
12 45 78
  34 67 9

the H should be right below the brackets  [ ]
                                           H


too bad it looks different when you're typing out the topic/post. but still nice

No, a table is more like a spread sheet, but without formulas.  You can use it to make columns and rows of data.

example:

fruitvegetablenuts
applecarrotpeanut
bananapeaswalnut

See how the first letter of each item in each column lines up? I did not add any spacing, here is the code:

Code: [Select]
[table][tr][td]fruit[/td][td]vegetable[/td][td]nuts[/td][/tr][tr][td]apple[/td][td]carrot[/td][td]peanut[/td][/tr][tr][td]banana[/td][td]peas[/td][td]walnut[/td][/tr][/table]
and the issue with borders and spacing is not really an SMF issue, it is the theme.  I would fix it if we used tables much here but it is a lot of work for something that would never, or rarely at any rate, get used.
Smart people look like crazy people to stupid people.

I lied about the code tags making things monospaced... apparently it's based on browsers. FF rendered it right but chrome's giving me a useless porportional font.

i couldn't figure out where you mentioned about monospacing or whatever. I guess i didn't read the code
