This set of templates (
- REDIRECT Template:Template link
Template:Redirect category shell,
- REDIRECT Template:Template link
Template:Redirect category shell,
- REDIRECT Template:Template link
Template:Redirect category shell) allows the production of tables that scroll horizontally when they're wider than the screen. This is especially useful in comparison tables. Note that only the three subtemplates mentioned above are used to make the tables — this template page serves solely as documentation.
Some notes:
- The scrollbar only appears if the table is actually wider than the page.
- This template allows up to 30 row headers passed as parameters to its {{#Invoke:Template link general|main|code=on}} subtemplate, for convenience.
- Extra row headers can be added using regular table syntax, between the {{#Invoke:Template link general|main|code=on}} and the {{#Invoke:Template link general|main|code=on}} subtemplates
- Important: The
- REDIRECT Template:Template link
Template:Redirect category shell subtemplate uses zero-width spaces to ensure newlines are added where appropriate. Be careful when editing them.
