Table tags

yeah, you've got table bbcode now. enjoy

A SANE TABLE
[table=Some Data]

[tr][th]Flavor[/th][td]Sweet[/td][td]Orange[/td][td]Lime[/td][/tr]

[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Remember, kids:]
Tables contain only table rows ([tr]). Table rows contain only table headers([th]) or table cells ([td]).

Table
*TableRow
**TableData
***stuff
**EndTableData
**TableData
***stuff
**EndTableData
*EndTableRow
EndTable

Code Select


[table]
[tr][td]stuff[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]stuff[/td][/tr]
[/table]

stuff

[/spoiler]

You may also use TableHeader (

Code Select

[th][/th]) tags. they'll be darker than TableData but otherwise identical. Sane people put these at the top of the table. (for the html savy, they're the html

Code Select

element.)

If you give

Code Select

[table=a Title] the title appears as a caption above the table. for the html savy, that's an actual

Code Select

element.

Tables will neither nest nor contain certain tags (like ooc, note).
If TableRows aren't all given the same number of TableDatas, they'll display, but look stupid. be warned.

If closing tags aren't given, hilarious results ensue. as in, the data won't display.
'Orphaned' [tr]s, [th]s, or [td]s don't even get parsed, as this sentence should show.

[spoiler=explanation]
okay:
inside class:

Code Select

[levels=10]
sets the number of levels the class has. classes always start at first level, you can't start at 21 and go to 30. if i'm bugged, i can allow this. the default here is 20, so base classes can leave this tag out.

Code Select


[bab=fighter|cleric|rogue|wizard]
[fort=good|poor]
[ref=good|poor]
[will=good|poor]

for bab, fort, ref, and will, the worst is assumed. so you can leave out bab=wizard, ref=poor, etc--that's the default.
note that, currently, levels greater than 20 aren't calculated using the epic progression, but just the normal one. i can change this, if i get requests to.

Code Select


[special][/special]
[special=Title][/special]

creates a speical ability column. if you want multiples columns, the titles MUST be different. multiple specials with the same name overwrite each other. multiple specials with no name also overwrite each other.

inside

Code Select

[special]:

Code Select

[1]stuff, more stuf, stuff[/1]
[3]level 3 stuff[/3]
[10]level 10 stuff[/10]

adds special stuff to that particular level. levels outside the range set by [levels=] will be ignored. repeated levels ([1]stuff[/1][1]more stuff[/1]) will be ignored--only the first one counts. failure to properly close level tags ([1]first level stuff[/9], for instance) will make data be ignored.

Code Select

[repeat]
causes the special ability line from the previous level to be repeated. useful for classes like the monk, or '+1 caster level' prestige classes.

Unfortunately, there's no way to handle spells right now: i couldn't think of a type-saving way of doing it, and saving on typing was the reason for this tag. You can do it with specials and repeat, but that's still not too easy. I could make a [spells=ranger], etc. tag, that just spit out a ranger spellcasting table? (and one for wizard, bard, assassin, etc....)

[spoiler=closing tags]
Tags which should close:

Code Select


[class][/class]
[special][/special]
level tags:[1]bonus feat[/1],[13]bonus feat[/13], etc

Tags which don't need to close:

Code Select


[levels=13]
save tags: [fort=good],etc.
[bab=rogue]
[repeat]

[/spoiler]
Note also that order largely doesn't matter: [special][/special] can come before or after [fort], [levels] can be last, you can define special levels as [20][/20][19][/19][18][/18], etc, if you so choose.

That'd be great if you could do that, and also do something for power points, with the option psion, wilder, psychic warrior. Thank you so much for your work, and I promise I am going to make extensive use of these once I can post regularly again. :D

The option that spits out common spell progeression tables sounds like a good one. So does the power point column option that was proposed in an earlier post.

Any chance there could be a way to left-justify the class name and have a Hit Die appear in the upper right-hand corner of the table? How about a way to put skill points per level and class skills in a big row along the bottom of the table?

Something like [hd=X] to put "dX" in the upper right hand corner and something like [skills=XX] skill 1, skill 2 [/skills] that puts "Class Skills (XX + Int modifier per level, x4 on 1st level): skill 1, skill 2." at the bottom of the table.

That's the best I could manage with creative bbcode, but lining everything up was just a crapshoot with Code tags, and I'm fairly sure there's no convenient way to make that class skills row look like a class skills row once skills start getting listed one by one. The row would just keep expanding to the right instead of conforming to the desired width.

Nice. Is there any possibility of getting colspan="X" and rowspan="X" put in? That would be spiffy.
