Template:Top/doc

The wikitable Template:top is a first-of-three column templates when desiring to display two formatted columns side by side. It was adapted from a Wiktionary template set with the same names.

It must be used with Mid and Bottom to form a complete table of two columns.

The additional parameter (either) bgcolor or bgColor can be defined to change the default color of the template display, from the default "Transparent" color. Such an override must be applied to both Top and mid as well... or one gets columns of two different colors.

 * Note
 * Hidden content above works only when included as is wikitable head end.


 * Default parameters:
 * Note on the relationship between the two width parameters "width" and "width2": a width of 1% always occupies a center (empty) column, so  width (outer) must be set to satisfy the relation:  border=0 (none) width=100% (overall width) width2=48% (see below, each column's width) so takes on the page background color, whatever that may be. Default perameters may be overridden by expressing the matching named parameter. {| border= width= ... data within table ... Parameters are: bgColor or bgcolor affecting bgcolor border            affecting border style, including color, width, etc. width              affecting overall width, within which the inner column width is applied. width2            setting the inner column width, should also apply same value to.
 * bgcolor= was once "#FFFFE0" (a light yellow), now "transparent",
 * bgcolor= was once "#FFFFE0" (a light yellow), now "transparent",
 * bgcolor=} valign=top width=|
 * bgcolor=} valign=top width=|
