Short last row -- inset table vs. free table

• Using an inset table is a shortcut we've gotten into using. The correct method is to close the table, then open a new one for the last row. The inset table causes minor alignment issues; the cells of the last row end up not centering perfectly.--Hardvice (talk) 02:43, 12 November 2007 (EST)
  • Why? How? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:44, 12 November 2007 (EST)
    • The only case I know of this being of any concern is for Portal:Portals, when you stack portals on top of each other the center cells may not be aligned. Left the same comment on Hardvice's talk page. Didn't know he was trying to explain here as I typed.--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:46, 12 November 2007 (EST)
    • It's most noticeable when the percentage isn't a perfect dividend (like 56%, which is rounded down from 56.25%), and on browsers which for some reason don't seem to collapse the two table's margins properly (like Opera). It doesn't seem to happen otherwise.--Hardvice (talk) 02:50, 12 November 2007 (EST)
      • Wouldn't it be best just to ban Opera users from our site and change the laws of mathematics? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:52, 12 November 2007 (EST)
        • How dare we risk pissing off the 5-10 people who use Opera!--Hardvice (talk) 02:53, 12 November 2007 (EST)
          • Indeed, we need to keep the Opera users happy.--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:56, 12 November 2007 (EST)
            • It may be other browsers, too. I only notice it on the Wii, though, which is the only time I use Opera. It's only really noticeable because it's a 110-inch screen, so a few pixels looks a lot worse than normal.--Hardvice (talk) 03:00, 12 November 2007 (EST)
