All right, I clicked on the BBCode link (http://forum.gsplayers.com/misc.php?do=bbcode) (bottom of posts) to find out how people make the pretty tables in their posts.

And I think there is clearly more to it than listed on the help file!

So, who can share the secrets with me, please?

Allow me:

Using Chrome, type in: Pretty table

Click on images

Select the prettiest table you want

Click View Image

On the image, right click and select copy image

Go to your post on these forums, right click and select paste.

Voila!

I'll be interested to see the answer. I did it once for an auction and haven't been able to replicate it since!

Easiest thing to do is find a post with a table in it and click on Reply With Quote. That will bring up the syntax of the post for you.

Nope, that BBCode Table syntax is not supported here, but I found a message and replied to like suggested, and there it was!

But from what I can tell even the REPLY trick doesn't format it correctly. Either that, or Preview Post lied to me on both tries.

Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column4
2|Red|Blue|Green
3|Red|Blue|Yellow
4|Vermillion|Cobalt|Citrine


Oh, Oh! I think I found my errors! I was using the first TABLE tag on its own line. So the table above looks like this in the BBcode markup:


Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column4
2|Red|Blue|Green
3|Red|Blue|Yellow
4|Vermillion|Cobalt|Citrine
