I did a search on this thread for the term wiki and found nothing.

Has anyone considered adding wiki style editing possiblities to the posts here? I think it could be quite useful.

For example if I wanted to make a table and I'm using wiki format I could simply enter the following:


|| symbol || Price || Volume ||
|| XX || $23.21 || 1000 ||
|| YYYY || $5.03 || 1000000 ||

It would come out as a border framed and row/colum framed table with the first row showing the column headers in this case,
followed with each row of data.

Internally in your code you could convert this to
<table border=1>
<tr><td>symbol</td><td>Price</td><td>Volume</td></tr>
... You get the idea i'm sure.
</table>

I don't see an obvious way to get a table to show up using the features I have available currently on SI


FWIW, when you screw up a wiki format, it sort of treats the mistake as text so you don't necessarily end up with having to support the bad syntax cases.

my guess his real request is that he be unbanned by an administrator.

Heck I even banned myself on one of my former invisible subjects... I forget why I did though...

under an earlier 'ignore' version, I put myself on ignore (just to test it out) and .... vanished ... couldn't get back without the Admin rescuing me. Doh!

You can use the HTML PRE tags to get the fixed-pitch font. Example is on the compose page.

I think you knew that. :-)

Yeah, i know about that...

I'm just suggesting a way to get tables drawn in.

there might even be a module (open source / free) that can wiki parse the text...

Spanish only? I don't see how you could enforce it. But, there is nothing to prevent a "Spanish preferred" board. There are several French preferred boards.

The board description will clarify that all posts will be written in the Spanish Language, lest they will be removed. I believe there are many Hispanic investors that would celebrate an opportunity to express themselves in their native language.

You don't have the ability to remove posts. And, before you ask, that would not be justifiable basis for a ban.

>> I believe there are many Hispanic investors that would celebrate an opportunity to express themselves in their native language.

What is stopping them? The French speaking boards manage quite well. I don't see what the difficulty is.
