Topic: Wiki Page formatting...

[Josietta]

I'm working on a wiki page for a group game and can't for the life of me figure out how to format tabbing spaces in.

As in, starting a listing then tabbing over to list a price or some data on something.

Ex:

Chicken Legs                         $1.50 each
Crispy, yummy, appendages of a chicken for all your nutritional needs and desires.

I have tried to input the colons as the wiki help suggested but you can only do that at the beginning of a sentence or paragraph not in the middle of one.

I tried spaces but the wiki takes them out.

Is there a simpler way to do this that I may have overlooked?


This is the page I am trying to edit:  http://elliquiy.com/wiki/ShadowrunInfo#Melee_Weapons

You can see there how its squishing things together and where I tried the colons.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I know it's hardly ideal, but maybe you can achieve that by putting the data into an actual table?

For a table you can insert a classic HTML code and the wiki will parse it.

Code: [Select]

<table>
<tr>
<td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td>
</tr>
</table>
AKA the train code. 

<table></table> - starts and end the table
<tr></tr> - starts and ends a row in a table
<td></td> - starts and end a single cell in a row- you have to have the very same number of cells on every row, otherwise the table will fall apart.
