If the first text-word is too long, no text will fit to complete the left-hand side, so beware creating a "ragged left margin" when not enough space remains for text to fit alongside floating-tables. If multiple single image-tables are stacked, they will float to align across the page, depending on page-width.
Note: For vertical alignment of text see: Help:Table#Vertical alignment in cells. If there is no global text alignment set in the top line of the table wikitext, then all text is left aligned, except for header cells which are default center aligned.
See: Help:HTML in wikitext#Tables. By default, text is aligned to the vertical middle of the cell (2nd column in table below). See: Template:Vertical align rows. It allows one to set all rows in a table to be either top or bottom aligned. {} CSS can be used to align individual cells, or single rows.
More template styles for tables: {{sticky header}} - Makes column headers stick to the top of the page while scrolling through table data. {} - moves the sorting arrows under the headers. {{row hover highlight}} - adds row hover highlighting, and option for white background. {{static row numbers}} - adds a column of row numbers to a table.
The purpose is of this template is for generating simple tables in locations where standard table markup is either not possible, without significant use of the {{!}} magic word (e.g., with a {{}} template), or cumbersome (due to the repetitive use of specification of the same style statement in each row).
The text in the cell is taken from the first parameter; {{yes | Sure}} would output "Sure" otherwise it defaults to "Yes". Most templates allow authors to override the default text in this way, some require text put after the template call and some also need a vertical bar in between: {{table cell template}} text or {{table cell template ...
If your browser does not support CSS property writing-mode: vertical-rl that makes this template possible, it gracefully degrades to the default display of the table columns. The |1= text can contain wikilinks ([[]]). You can escape the equals sign either by using {} or by explicitly mentioning the |1= parameter. Styles may contain double quotes.
