Package: wiki.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

It would be wonderful if it were possible to explisitly enable
gridlines within tables as part of the wiki markup.

Better still would be to have the ability to have alternate rows with
differant background colour (old school listing style tractor paper)

currently table framing is set as part of the css theme.

Followup-For: Bug #864925

I'm using the following custom style to godd effect:

th, td { border-bottom: 1px solid #d2d3d7; }

Sample page:

https://wiki.debian.org/SystemBuildTools

Before:

After:

Seems way more readable to me! :)

Do notice how it will outline structure problems in some tables (see
the "General tools" section for an example). I consider that a
feature.
