U14: Universal Challenge Token
Add to discussion

Condensed Table Code

 * Yes, pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I'll just need to make a few minor tweaks and adjustments to column widths to make them line up, but I think I can handle that part.. -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; Message) 13:55, April 13, 2012 (EDT)
 * The one issue I forswear is that with such a large amount of data in the table, with out sortable data it makes it difficult to easily see the data. And having the nested tables makes it not drawable to sort through the data to quickly find what is being looked for.Ague (Contributions &bull; Message) 14:16, April 13, 2012 (EDT)
 * You may have missed part of the discussion above Ague. There will be a separate table above that will list yesterdays &rArr; week from yesterdays tokens, and when that token will become available next if you miss that day.  I was also thinking a two - four row by 12 - 6 column table that shows all 12 tokens and the next available date.  This table will simply be a reference of how the system works for the 1 in 40 people that cares to understand the mechanic, and has no purpose being sortable since that changes the pattern. -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; Message) 14:38, April 13, 2012 (EDT)

Something Like This?
I was in a really big hurry on this one because of having to get to work, but is this kind of what you are looking for? Edit to see some extra notes...

 * The div isn't scrolling on my screen, and I can't even see the scrollbar to see where it is suppose to be. -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; Message) 11:21, April 13, 2012 (EDT)


 * The Scroll bar is on the far right of the screen. The nested table idea just looks god-awful and is not all that practical.  This will also allow for adding the image of the collectible.  The way you have the colors just looks beyond simple.  And might I suggest combining Challenge Group and Challenge Name.  When sorting the combined Challenge from my original table, it just seemed to make more sense to have it that way.  That is 1 less cell that the end user will have to look at.

 * I set it with the nested tables so that the headers would never move. I agree that Challenge Group: Challenge Name would make more sense and have it one column. The borders of the cells of the content still need to be there in order to make it easily distinguishable by row, column borders are not as important. -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; Message) 12:32, April 13, 2012 (EDT)
 * I don't use the same template as you do, but I added the cell borders. Scroll through the newest table I did to see an elegant workaround for what you are trying to do.  Ague (Contributions &bull; Message) 12:42, April 13, 2012 (EDT)
 * Hmmm.. headers are still not static.. See my ms-paint blurry pieced together example of what I am looking for.. just want the inside tables outside borders to go away. -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; Message) 13:09, April 13, 2012 (EDT)
 * I completely understand what you are trying to accomplish here, but you have to understand that wiki's are somewhat limited in what they can do and still remain 'Wikified'. The whole point of a wiki is to keep things simple, and you are trying to over-complicate this simple task.  The data is there, it's sort-able, doesn't take up 10,000 pixels of vertical space, and is rather conforming to the rest of the page's style.  Something like what you are asking for is really not an easy task to do outside of a wiki, that's why nobody does it.  The only place I can even think that offers that is Google's online spreadsheet app.  I am pretty sure that I haven't seen that in a long time.  And for good reason.  The solution that I offered you is about the best you are going to be able to get.  And personally I think that is an extremely viable and good looking solution to what you want.  You asked for my help and this is what i have to help you with.  I have too much RL stuff going on to sit here and hand code every little tweak you want done.

 * Okay, no pressure.  Thank you for trying.  -- ShoeMaker (Contributions &bull; Message) 13:25, April 13, 2012 (EDT)
