wiki. Here, the HTML tags are replaced by pipes (|), which results
in a table, evident even in edit mode:
{|
| cell1 || cell2
|-
| cell3 || cell4
|-
| cell5 || cell6
|}
You can see the result in Fig. 5.3:
As is the case of HTML, the table is composed of three nesting levels:
Table level: You should always start a table on a new line. It is
started using {| param and concluded with |}. The term param
stands for optional parameters, such as background color or border
thickness.
Row level: When you initialize a table, the first row is created along
with it. Begin the subsequent rows with |- param. The row is
automatically closed by starting a new row with |- or ending the table
with|}.
Cell level: Cells can be generated in two ways. Either you set two
pipes next to each other:
| cell1 || cell2 || cell3
or you combine a new line with the pipe symbol:
| cell1
| cell2
| cell3
