Revision as of 01:51, 26 March 2005 by Dbenbenn (talk | contribs) (Change syntax)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Used for putting a table in a frame. Possibly renamed, updated, etc. in the future.
Still needs some work on the caption length screwing things up. Should maybe be renamed table_float_end or something, since it is only for pipe tables.
Template talk:Float begin Template talk:Float end
To be superseded by a table namespace someday? :-)
Usage
{{float_begin|side=left}}
|- align = "center"
| ] || PNP || ] || P-channel
|- align = "center"
| ] || NPN || ] || N-channel
|- align = "center"
| BJT || || JFET ||
{{float_end|caption=Different types of transistors}}
becomes
 |
PNP |  |
P-channel |
 |
NPN |  |
N-channel |
| BJT | JFET |
Change syntax
I love this template; it's semantically much better than what I came up with at Template:Caption top.
I suggest removing the second line, that opens a table. That way we could use this template to put a frame around anything. For example, at Fork (chess), I have a template that already makes a complete table. I want a frame with caption around it. dbenbenn | talk 01:51, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
