=== Notes ===
 +
 +
Item templates (eg. <code><nowiki>{{:Fungus Covered Scale Tunic}}</nowiki></code>, {{:Fungus Covered Scale Tunic}}) will usually not work inside these tables.  You have to use HTML tables instead.
 +
 +
=== HTML Tables ===
 +
 +
Instead of using wiki syntax, you can also use HTML to create tables (which ''will'' work with item links):
 +
 +
<table class="wikitable">
 +
<caption>Caption: example table</caption>
 +
<tr>
 +
  <th>header1</th>
 +
  <th>header2</th>
 +
  <th>header3</th>
 +

 +
  <td>row1cell1</td>
 +
  <td>row1cell2</td>
 +
  <td>row1cell3</td>

 +
 +
=== Table Classes ===
 +
 +
Both table styles can use classes (as well as HTML style attributes) to change the table's appearance.
 +
 +
==== wikitable Class Example ====

) will usually not work inside these tables. You have to use HTML tables instead.

HTML Tables

Instead of using wiki syntax, you can also use HTML to create tables (which will work with item links):

Caption: example table
header1 header2 header3
row1cell1 row1cell2 row1cell3
row2cell1 row2cell2 row2cell3 
<table class="wikitable">
<caption>Caption: example table</caption>
<tr>
  <th>header1</th>
  <th>header2</th>
  <th>header3</th>
</tr><tr>
  <td>row1cell1</td>
  <td>row1cell2</td>
  <td>row1cell3</td>
</tr><tr>
  <td>row2cell1</td>
  <td>row2cell2</td>
  <td>row2cell3</td>
</tr>
</table>

Table Classes

Both table styles can use classes (as well as HTML style attributes) to change the table's appearance.

wikitable Class Example

The default wiki style table uses a class of "wikitable":

Caption: example table
header1 header2 header3
row1cell1 row1cell2 row1cell3
row2cell1 row2cell2 row2cell3 
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Caption: example table
|-
! header1
! header2
! header3
|-
| row1cell1
| row1cell2
| row1cell3
|-
| row2cell1
| row2cell2
| row2cell3
|}

eoTable Class Example

Caption: example table
header1 header2 header3
row1cell1 row1cell2 row1cell3
row2cell1 row2cell2 row2cell3 
{| class="eoTable"
|+ Caption: example table
|-
! header1
! header2
! header3
|-
| row1cell1
| row1cell2
| row1cell3
|-
| row2cell1
| row2cell2
| row2cell3
|}

eoTable2 Class Example

Caption: example table
header1 header2 header3
row1cell1 row1cell2 row1cell3
row2cell1 row2cell2 row2cell3 
{| class="wikitable eoTable2"
|+ Caption: example table
|-
! header1
! header2
! header3
|-
| row1cell1
| row1cell2
| row1cell3
|-
| row2cell1
| row2cell2
| row2cell3
|}

eoTable3 Class Example

Caption: example table
header1 header2 header3
row1cell1 row1cell2 row1cell3
row2cell1 row2cell2 row2cell3 
{| class="eoTable3"
|+ Caption: example table
|-
! header1
! header2
! header3
|-
| row1cell1
| row1cell2
| row1cell3
|-
| row2cell1
| row2cell2
| row2cell3
|}

sortable Class Example

Caption: example table
header1 header2 header3
row1cell1 row1cell2 row1cell3
row2cell1 row2cell2 row2cell3 
{| class="sortable"
|+ Caption: example table
|-
! header1
! header2
! header3
|-
| row1cell1
| row1cell2
| row1cell3
|-
| row2cell1
| row2cell2
| row2cell3
|}

eoTable3 + sortable Class Example

Classes can also be combined, so you can have (for instance) a "sortable eoTable3" table:

Caption: example table
header1 header2 header3
row1cell1 row1cell2 row1cell3
row2cell1 row2cell2 row2cell3 
{| class="eoTable3 sortable"
|+ Caption: example table
|-
! header1
! header2
! header3
|-
| row1cell1
| row1cell2
| row1cell3
|-
| row2cell1
| row2cell2
| row2cell3
|}
