[05:53:54] Probably something using CodeReview would be better, although i'm not sure how hard it would be to implement [05:53:56] <_mary_kate_> but that copy is only updated when wikimedia updates the live code [05:53:58] ExtensionDistributor let's you pick which MediaWiki version you want to download for..

[07:36:31] Hi! :) [07:37:39] I would like to know which module to install to MediaWiki in order to make tables with borders, just like in the following Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_TCP_and_UDP_port_numbers [07:39:43] I have successfully installed MediaWiki. But copying and pasting the contents from the WikiPedia link above, doesn't display any table border etc. [07:40:05] I used that content as an example. [07:41:05] Equiuma_: It is styled using CSS. Copy the section mentioning wikitable from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css to the page MediaWiki:Common.css on your wiki (you'll need to create it). You want the section startin with /* wikitable/prettytable class for skinning normal tables */ [07:41:20] You can probably copy that whole page over if you want, that'll make most things look the same [07:41:26] Aha! :) [07:41:39] I'll try that now! [07:42:50] I've founde this: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CSS [07:43:04] hey TimStarling [07:43:22] hi [07:43:45] Equiuma_: That's not what you need to do this, it's unrelated. CSS is a name for a method of changing the appearance of something, whereas that extension is just a special way of using it. [07:44:37] I would like to use the CSS in my MediaWiki, just like they do in WikiPedia. [07:46:29] Copying the content in the WikiPedia link above, doesn't display the table and the borders in my MediaWiki. So what is missing? [07:52:56] Equiuma_: The content on the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css on wikipedia (view witht the view source tab, where edit normally is) needs to be copied to the same named page ( MediaWiki:Common.css ) on your wiki [07:58:22] Yeah! It Worked!! :) [07:59:05] Many thanks, Matt! You saved my day! :) [08:02:16] Equiuma_: Any time :) [08:02:41] TimStarling: having some client trouble? [08:24:09] <_wooz> lo [08:30:10] Matt... I wonder my the content in the CSS list is colored depending on the Tags, while in my MediaWiki every character and line is just plain black and white. [08:31:38] Matt... I wonder why the contents in the CSS list 'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css' is colored depending on the Tags, while in my MediaWiki every character and line is just plain black and white. [08:31:55] That's called syntax highlighting. [08:32:08] Equiuma_: I don't know, it could possibly be an extension. If you go to the page Special:Version on wikipedia it will tell you what extensions they are using, which may help you [08:32:10] Aha... Is that a module? [08:32:17] Extension. [08:32:20] !highlight [08:32:20] --mwbot-- there are several extensions for syntax highlighting, see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Syntax_highlighting - the most popular one is at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi [08:36:11] wikipedia is using geshi, ircc [08:44:26] Wikimedia, yes.
