One more question

[edit]

Hi there. Thanks again for your help with the handball infobox entries. If you don't mind, I have one more question about a formatting issue I am unable to resolve. If you have any input to offer, that would be much appreciated.

Mediterranean_Games#Competitions - the last column has fewer entries (10) than the first two (12). What is the formatting trick to have the third column appear leveled at the top with the other two (currently it's shown lower, centered compared to the other two)?

Cheers! — Preceding unsigned comment added by NoWikiNoLife (talkcontribs) 06:51, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, NoWikiNoLife. I've fixed it.
The explanation for what I've done is that there is an outer table with nothing except three cells next to each other, with each of the inner tables in one cell. By default the contents of a cell are vertically centred in that cell.
I've added a property to each cell of the outer table to align its contents to the top.
(In this case it would have been enough to do this for the third cell only, but this way, if the numbers of items in the columns change, it will always keep all three columns aligned to the top).
By the way: if you sign your contribution on a talk page (by ~~~~ or the signature icon) it is easier to reply, as it would give me the "Reply" option. --ColinFine (talk) 10:52, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's great. Thanks again! Ah, yes, I always forget about the signature! 😁 — Preceding unsigned comment added by NoWikiNoLife (talkcontribs) 12:25, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you

The Helping Hand Barnstar
To Colin, a special thank-you for your many replies to help requests I've made at the Help Desk and in the Teahouse — sometimes even to other comments I've written within a thread. You've always guided me well ... which, as an educator, I appreciate all the more. :) Augnablik (talk) 16:03, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you.

Oh my gosh you have no idea how much I appreciate your response. That cleared a lot of things up. Y'all are great, Belbury, too. It is hard for me to approach things online, I have been traumatized regarding the online space, many times. Thank you for being clarifying. More people should take the time to explain things, how you do. peeeeeee-yew! (talk) 13:24, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
