Is that the ‘christ’ part of your nick getting some play, Tom? :)

Hey, it’s when I start signing with ^†☧ᶥﬅ that you’ll really have to worry. 😇

I just couldn’t help myself. His mendicant petitions were so subclubious that ... well ... er ... how ’bout I thought something simple might work better? Surely they couldn’t be worse!

Yeah yeah, okay. You were supposed to laugh.

But it’s true that I personally have always found tbl a lot easier than HTML tables, which are kinda nightmarish. But what do you expect? So is all markup language. I could sing you a slow song of DocBook — call it a dirge — whose lamentations would strike dumb your tongue and rip your heart asunder, and you would claw out your eyes to save them from every having to look at it again.

And it’s coming soon to a bookstore near you. 🙆

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
