TNG Wiki Tables
The following is an approach for creating Tables in a TNG Wiki article, such as those in the XHTML Validation
Steps for generating table data in the TNG Wiki
- If your data is in an MS Word document in table format, the easiest way is to do a Save As and save the document as an htm file.
- Open the saved htm file with an editor like PSPad
- Eliminate the top part of the document, such as
<HTML> <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> <META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="Microsoft Word 97"> <TITLE>XHTML Validation</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY LINK="#0000ff">
- Scan for following parameters and replace (no replacement parameter). Reply "Yes to All"
* for any <FONT FACE="Arial"> (or similar <FONT statement generated by MS Word) * for <FONT SIZE=2> (or similar <FONT statement generated by MS Word) * for </FONT> * for <P> * for </P>
- Set the WIDTH= for the table to WIDTH=800
