Creating tables in forums like this? - Tilted Forum Project - TFP - Sexuality, Philosophy and Political Discussion

Hi,

Does anyone know if it's possible to create a table in a post to a thread like this?

All help appreciated.

If HTML is enabled, then yes you should be able to. Check the bottom left hand corner of the page (scroll all the way down) and check the Posting Rules box. HTML may not be enabled in every forum though, so check it before you try posting.

It says HTML is off, and I didn't see anything under options to allow me to turn it on.

It says my Message Editor interface is "Enhanced interface--Full WYSIWYG editing."

The posting rules are set by the forum admins, so you wouldn't be able to change it.

<table border="3">
<tr><td>html</td><td>is</td></tr>
<tr><td>enabled</td><td>for</td></tr>
<tr><td>me!</td><td>why?</td></tr>
</table>

<table border="1">

I don't think it's on in every forum on TFP, and it may not be enabled on ~insert whatever forums you can think of here~

<table border="2"><tr><td>its</td><td>on</td></tr>
<tr><td>for</td><td>me</td></tr>
<tr><td>too</td><td>!!!</td></tr></table>

Could it be a user rights issue?

Cynthetiq · 07-23-2007, 08:24 AM

Only members who are full members have this ability, time has no bearing on this since I see you've been a member since May 2006.

We choose them by hand based on criteria of good standing and contribution to the community.

Wait ... seriously?

Wow. I feel special now. That I of all people was hand-picked, I barely ever post outside of the Technology forum. It's hard to believe I've been here for two years already ...

Haha, it's not that, I just feel like I've never really been a 'community guy' at TFP and I really should do more.

you are the helpful Tech Guy that seems to be well-versed and very helpful when it comes to computer issues.

I deem that to be the essence of being an essential member of this community.

It's a different VB forum where I was having problems.

HTML code is on for me here. I feel blessed.
