For complex layouts, rowspan and colspan may be used, but again it is sometimes simpler and more maintainable to use nested tables. Nested tables must start on a new line. In the following example, five different tables are shown nested inside the cells of a sixth, main table. None has any header cells.
For years in HTML, a table has always forced an implicit line-wrap (or line-break). So, to keep a table within a line, the workaround is to put the whole line into a table, then embed a table within a table, using the outer table to force the whole line to stay together. Consider the following examples: Wikicode (showing table forces line-break)
To do so technically would require a more sophisticated grammar, like a Chomsky Type 1 grammar, also termed a context-sensitive grammar. However, parser generators for context-free grammars often support the ability for user-written code to introduce limited amounts of context-sensitivity. (For example, upon encountering a variable declaration ...
Nest of tables (also known as nested tables, nesting tables) is a set of few tables with progressively smaller heights and frames, so that they can be stacked when not in use. A smaller table slides inside the frame of a larger one until it engages the edge of the back frame. Typically a set contains three (trio) or four (quartetto) tables.
Table (information) A table is an arrangement of information or data, typically in rows and columns, or possibly in a more complex structure. Tables are widely used in communication, research, and data analysis. Tables appear in print media, handwritten notes, computer software, architectural ornamentation, traffic signs, and many other places.
Hugo (software) Hugo is a static site generator written in Go. Steve Francia [4] originally created Hugo as an open source project in 2013. Since v0.14 in 2015, [5] Hugo has continued development under the lead of Bjørn Erik Pedersen with other contributors. Hugo is licensed under the Apache License 2.0.
You can add a table using HTML rather than wiki markup, as described at HTML element#Tables. However, HTML tables are discouraged because wikitables are easier to customize and maintain, as described at manual of style on tables. Also, note that the <thead>, <tbody>, <tfoot>, <colgroup>, and <col> elements are not supported in wikitext.
These tools used nested tables ad nauseam for page layout; they would even dice-and-slice an image and fit the pieces in the table cells! The mantra rightly had to be dinned into the programming community - the authoring tool creators, but wrongly broadened its aim to include the tool users - the page designers and content creators.
