bbcode_tables.php	5.6 KB	open | download	Joe Curia	05/26/2010	Read message

This is a rudimentary BBcode table implementation module. It is a single file module, so simply place it in your mods folder and enable it from the Admin modules page. I have set up some basic formatting options (ie. table width, borders, cell padding/spacing) which you can change by editing the settings section in the bbcode_tables.php file itself. I have placed some comments there to make it a little easier.

Please note that this module simply replaces [table][tr][th][/th][td][/td][/tr][/table] with <table><tr><th></th><td></td></tr></table>. There are no checks for proper formatting so you and your users will be responsible for stringing it all together correctly.

Thanks go to Maurice for making quick additions to his BBcode module so easy.

Thank you again for this great addition!
Is there a way to avoid the <br> tags which will be inserted by the BBcode module unless you mark up the entire table within one line?

I have released a still rudimentary v5.2.1.01 of this module which addresses your issue:

- Fixed a bug which would cause line breaks in the editor between [table] and [tr] tags to become <br /> tags in the posted message, stacking up above the table itself. Thanks go to Phorum user korsakov for pointing out this bug.

I think that you totally misplaced your message, since this thread is about the bbcode tables module. Now you are hijacking this thread, trying to push a feature that does not belong in this module at all.

There is a little issue with this mod.
When $settings["cell_borders"] is used, the value applies to all header (th) cells of all tables used in the phorum software, not just to those of the tables the posters put in their messages.

The problem can easily be fixed by changing

Language: PHP
    if (!empty($settings["cell_borders"])) {
        $style .= "
        table.bbcode_table td, th {
            border: " . $settings["cell_borders"] . ";
        }";
    }

to

Language: PHP
    if (!empty($settings["cell_borders"])) {
        $style .= "
        table.bbcode_table th {
            border: " . $settings["cell_borders"] . ";
        }";
        $style .= "
        table.bbcode_table td {
            border: " . $settings["cell_borders"] . ";
        }";
    }

Please help install this module! From the admin panel it is not installed correctly. Version Phorum 5.2.20. bbcode-2.0.7
Thank you
