A table is an arrangement of columns and rows that organizes and positions data or images. Tables can be created on Wikipedia pages using special wikitext syntax, and many different styles and tricks can be used to customise them. Tables can be used as formatting instrument, but consider using a multi column list instead.
But the tables must wrap (one dropping below the other) in narrow screens if horizontal scrolling is to be avoided. Narrow your browser window to see the tables below wrap. This works in mobile view too. Click on "mobile view" at the bottom of any Wikipedia page. These tables are adapted excerpts from versions of Iceland men's national handball ...
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.
Maintain accessibility when creating tables by using specific table tags to help users navigate the data and captions to clearly identify and describe tables. Avoid relying solely on formatting (e.g., background color changes) to convey meaning. Additionally, do not refer to tables in body text as being positioned on the left or right side of a ...
On this smaller file use the "Pivot Table" method described in the previous section to put the dates as column heads. Select all from the edit menu. Then click on the "Pivot Table" command from the Insert menu. Click OK in the popup box. In the next dialog box drag "Date reported" to the "Column Fields" box, and drag "Country" to the "Row ...
Note that images in headers can be particularly annoying for screen reader users if they are badly handled. If the image does not comply with the above criteria, the filename will be part of the header title. The filename will be read aloud in every cell under the header containing the icon.
Framing an Image will automatically set the Image to the right side of the screen and frame it. (Like a picture frame) To frame an Image type in: [[File:Cscr-featured.svg|frame]] Which will appear like this: NOTE: This will force the image to be in its original size (to change the size use thumbnails or do not use the frame).
Data cells should normally have plain unbolded text, and a lighter background. In the table below the data cell wikitext is on the same line as the row header wikitext. This causes the data cell backgrounds to be the same shade of gray as the column and row headers. It also makes the data cell text bold. See how to fix this after the table.
