The Wiki software is starting to give me a rash. I've discovered that I can use <nowiki></nowiki> to collapse multiple blank lines into empty whitespace, which would solve my problem, but doing so breaks the standard Wiki markup for making tables.
So, I came up with a different solution: Using <td></td> directly. The problem is, the blasted wasHTML filter eats all my table tags when I use a template to generate them. I tested, and it doesn't eat the tags if I put <table></table> in the template too, so obviously it eats only HTML it thinks I'm trying to quote.
Is there any way to work around this issue that isn't a huge ugly hack? All I want to happen is to be able to return HTML from a template without it trying to " it. -- Thwgatrostys 14:17, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
- Hold on. I just found some conditional-table-row documentation in Wikipedia that looks like it will solve this entire problem and be elegant and pretty. I'll attempt to implement it when I get off work tonight. Stand by, Captain. -- Thwgatrostys 15:43, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
- At last! I finally figured it out, by reference to the Wikipedia. Check out Template:CondNL if you're curious. What a pain that was. -- Thwgatrostys 23:51, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
