Template:Table alignment

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template uses TemplateStyles:

Purpose

To make it simpler to align the columns in tables with less wikicode.

Place {{Table alignment}} just before the table and then add some classes to the table.

classname	Purpose
`defaultleft`	Align all table cells left by default
`defaultcenter`	Align all table cells center by default
`defaultright`	Align all table cells right by default
`colNleft`	Align the cells in column N left, where N is a number
`colNcenter`	Align the cells in column N center, where N is a number
`colNright`	Align the cells in column N right, where N is a number

Column numbers up to col19 are supported. A table can have more columns but they cannot be aligned with this method.
On tables using rowspan or colspan, using the classes may not work well on those rows because the alignment appears in wrong cells. Normal table code like style="text-align: left/center/right;"| cell content can be added to individual cells, both to get the wanted alignment and override unwanted alignment.

{{Table alignment}}
{| class="wikitable defaultcenter col1left col4right"
...
|}
