Creating a table in Cascade

Tables are a good way to organize data on a page. All tables must have a header row for accessibility purposes. The Cascade table design is preformatted to show a black header row and alternating striped body rows.

On the toolbar, click "Table" and select the number of columns and rows. You can add more columns and/or rows later.

You can also right click in the WYSIWYG and select "Table" to create a table.

  • Once you create the table, place your cursor in any of the cells and go to>>Formats>>Custom>>Table

The top row must be a "header row" in order to meet accessibility guidelines for screen readers.

The table will not display correctly while in Draft mode.

You will not see the changes on the "edit" page - you must "Preview Draft" to see the table formatted correctly.

Here is the correctly formatted table:

Header Column 1 Header Column 2 Header Column 3
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet

Rows

Tabbing through the rows will create a new row, or right-click in a cell to add/delete a row.

Columns

Highlight a column and right-click to add/delete columns.
