The **~OldStyleTable** [[Help:WikiPlugin|plugin]] can be used to include tables within a wiki
page using the old-style markup syntax for tables.

This plugin is included for legacy only. We recommand to
use [[Help:Wikicreole#Tables|Wikicreole tables]]
or [[Help:MediawikiTablePlugin|Mediawiki tables]] instead.

== Usage ==

{{{
<<OldStyleTable caption="OldStyleTable" border||=2
||^  *Name*                |v *Cost*   |v *Notes*
| *First*     | *Last*
|> Jeff       |< Dairiki   |^  Cheap   |< Not worth it
|> Marco      |< Polo      | Cheaper   |< Not available
>>
}}}

will get you

<<OldStyleTable caption="OldStyleTable" border||=2
||^  *Name*                |v *Cost*   |v *Notes*
| *First*     | *Last*
|> Jeff       |< Dairiki   |^  Cheap   |< Not worth it
|> Marco      |< Polo      | Cheaper   |< Not available
>>

Note that multiple **|**s lead to spanned columns, and **v**s can be
used to span rows.  A **>** generates a right justified column, **<**
a left justified column and **^** a centered column (which is the
default.)

== Arguments ==

{| class="bordered"
|-
! Argument
! Description
! Default value
|-
| **caption**
| Any string
| Empty string
|-
| **border**
| Any number
| 1
|-
| **cellspacing**
| Any number
| 1
|-
| **cellpadding**
| Any number
| 1
|-
| **summary**
| Any string
| Empty string
|}

== Syntax ==

Note that within each table cell, //new-style// markup is used.  You can
only use inline markup --- no block level markup is allowed within
table cells.

(Using old-style markup wouldn't make much sense, since one can't
include multi-line plugin invocations using the old-style markup
rules.)
