sports quiz?

since this is primarily a sports forum.

im considering the idea of starting a sports quiz.

do it a bit like the pub quiz but on alternate weeks to that.


if i did so would you guys have a go? or should we just stick to the pub quiz?

im game mate

I'm in!

Me too - I think a weekly quiz would be great but I know how time consuming they are to set up so if you and Legend could alternate, that would be great

Count me in

Sounds good. It gives me a chance to take part in something

ill start on friday since the next pub quiz is next friday.

Good stuff, I'll look forward to it

2 questions guys

1) how do you make a table to keep it updated

2) is there a way to put this everywhere to get everyone on the forum involved >

Legend or Enforcer can help with the coding.

We can make it a Global Announcement to drum up interest?

it would be a bit silly doing a sports quiz without people from all sports taking part.

sounds good no idea how to make a table.

Basically for tables, you need to use the full reply, not the quick reply. There are buttons there to "insert table" and it asks you how many rows, columns etc. After that though to refine the look of the table you may need a basic understanding of how tables are constructed.

The main elements are the [ tr ] and [ td ] tags (without the spaces)

tr is for table row - td is for table data (which loosely means a column) - each tag must have an equivalent closing tag [ /tr ] and be "nested" correctly. Not easy but not so bad once you understand it

So the coding of your table in the end would look something like below (with the actual data inserted in between the td tags

Code:

[ table ]
  [ tr ]
    [ td ] row 1 col 1 [ /td ]
    [ td ] row 1 col 2 [ /td ]
    [ td ] row 1 col 3 [ /td ]
  [ /tr ]
  [ tr ]
    [ td ] row 2 col 1 [ /td ]
    [ td ] row 2 col 2 [ /td ]
    [ td ] row 2 col 3 [ /td ]
  [ /tr ]
  [ tr ]
    [ td ] row 3 col 1 [ /td ]
    [ td ] row 3 col 2 [ /td ]
    [ td ] row 3 col 3 [ /td ]
  [ /tr ]
[ /table ]

Note I've put extra spaces in the tags so that you can see the tags properly rather than the board expanding them to make a "real" table

i think i have a fair idea what to do

we have lift off

There ya go! Easy innit

Count me in nando
