the Split Plugin

This plugin can be used to generate an html table without all the tags. Ideal for creating two or more columns in a wiki page, this plugin allows for wiki formating and line breaks within the cells of a table, unlike the simple table syntax.

Plugin command: {SPLIT(fixedsize=__ width=__ first=__ colsize=__)}

additional syntax:

--- separates columns
@@@ separates rows

parameters: Split uses the following parameters:

__joincols=y|n|0|1 : if it is true 'colspan' attribute will be generated if there are cells mising in a row. - default 'y'
__fixedsize=y|n|0|1 : 'width' attribute will be generated for TDs - default 'y'
__colsize=>size1|size2|...: are the size in percent of each TDs
In 1.10:
first=> col|line : col is the editorial way: the column is filled first, line is the html way, the row is filled e.g.
first{SPLIT(first=col)}r1c1---r2c1---r3c1@@@r1c2---r2c2{SPLIT} {SPLIT(first=>line)}r1c1---r1c2@@@r2c1---r2c2{SPLIT}
padding? - the split plugin uses a cellpadding parameter, but colsize can be used to create narrow "spacer" columns.

examples

To split a page in two or more columns, use --- as the separator:
Example:
{SPLIT()} -=hey=- one two three --- -=hoy=- foo bar test {SPLIT}

Produces:

If you want to do another row, use @@@:
Example:
{SPLIT()} -=hey=- one two three --- -=hoy=- foo bar test @@@ next --- next{SPLIT}

Produces:

note: If you want to use the horizontal rule in a split cell ---, you have to use more than 3 dashes ----

In tikiwiki1.10 : There is 2 additional parameters
- first=col|line. The default is line , the behaviour of 1.9 or the html table behavior. First=col enables you to describe first the first column, second the second column.. It is more appropriate for an editorial behavior.
Ex:
{SPLIT(first=col)}r1c1---r2c1---r3c1@@@r1c2---r2c2{SPLIT}
- edit=y to be able to edit the split section (if you have the perms of course). The parameter works only if first=col has been choosen and on a wiki page. It will create a little edit icon in the corner of the split section and will allow you to edit the section without the rest.

Bugs: Content within the table doesn't seem to be parsed for all tiki markup, it doesn't work for italics, in any case.
