Anybody???
I really like the look of the "wikitable" but can't figure out how to
get it to work.

Hi, I am pretty new to media wiki.
I was trying to follow the guide on tables here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Table
I found that when I put a table in my wiki like this....
{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center"
|+Multiplication table
|-
! × !! 1 !! 2 !! 3
|-
! 1
| 1 || 2 || 3
|-
! 2
| 2 || 4 || 6
|-
! 3
| 3 || 6 || 9
|-
! 4
| 4 || 8 || 12
|-
! 5
| 5 || 10 || 15
|}
... I don't get the nice looking table with dark and light grey
backgrounds in the cells. I get no borders either.
I went into skins/common/common.css and saw that it didn't have anything
for wikitable so I pasted the following into there...
/* wikitable/prettytable class for skinning normal tables */
table.wikitable,
table.prettytable {
margin: 1em 1em 1em 0;
background: #f9f9f9;
border: 1px #aaaaaa solid;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
table.wikitable th, table.wikitable td,
table.prettytable th, table.prettytable td {
border: 1px #aaaaaa solid;
padding: 0.2em;
}
table.wikitable th,
table.prettytable th {
background: #f2f2f2;
text-align: center;
}
table.wikitable caption,
table.prettytable caption {
margin-left: inherit;
margin-right: inherit;
}
This still didn't help. What else do I need to do?
Thanks,
~Eric
