[Phpwiki-talk] Adding '<caption>' tags to tables from wiki

[Micki K. <mic...@co...>]

Hi phpwiki folks.

After basing our documentation project (covering 1000s of pages) on 
the wiki, we're seeing amazing results. I'm available to discuss, 
etc., should anyone want to know more about how we use this awesome 
wiki.

One thing I've been looking for is a way to associate a 'title' or 
'caption' with a table (either OldStyle or NewStyle), so that the 
title obeys the proper 'keep-with', etc., when the title is printed 
in our pdf workflow.

I'd like a modification that allows:
- one extra parameter within the table plugin called 'caption', like

    <?plugin OldStyleTable caption="Caption Text"

- which renders its contents as
    ...<table>
     '<caption>Caption Text</caption>'
    <tr>...
  at the beginning of the table, before the first <tr> tag.

This is valid html, and it will allow seriously cool functionality in 
our printed workflow - titles will remain with tables, automatically 
generate 'list of tables' at the top of each doc, etc. Real 
MSWord-kiiling stuff.

Anyone have any ideas, or willing to help? This will be the first 
hardcore mod of our system that we'd have to carry forward, and 
logically I'd much prefer for this useful if obscure mod to be in the 
core code if folks find value to it.

If no one would like to work on it, I'll begin the process of 
figuring it out and will offer it back to the code base once we're 
done.

Thanks to all for making phpwiki continue to rock.

Micki
