| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Diagonal split header. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Contents
Usage
This template simulates a table header cell split diagonally, a device often used to compactly label headers of rows and columns, as in this example:
To From |
Solid | Liquid | Gas |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solid | Solid-solid transformation | Melting | Sublimation |
| Liquid | Freezing | — | Boiling/evaporation |
| Gas | Deposition | Condensation | — |
To use it, create a header cell using ! followed by {{diagonal split header|NATURE-OF-ROW-HEADERS|NATURE-OF-COLUMN-HEADERS}}.
As the effect is achieved by drawing a diagonal line across the cell, the two headers are still part of the same cell and can easily overrun the line. A remedy is to pad the headers with non-breaking spaces ( ), line breaks Template:Nobr and/or CSS (escape = signs as {{=}}), as in the example above. The template user is responsible for checking that it does not overrun on common Web browsers.
Background colour and non-header cells
A third parameter can be added to change the background colour from the standard header cell colour. Changing it to transparent (or another colour such as white, or #ffffff) lets the template be applied to non-header cells. Prefix it with | instead of !, as in this Friend or Foe? payoff matrix:
Pair 2 Pair 1
|
"Friend" (cooperate) |
"Foe" (defect) |
|---|---|---|
| "Friend" (cooperate) |
1 1
|
2 0
|
| "Foe" (defect) |
0 2
|
0 0
|
Spanning columns and rows, and collapsible and sortable tables
The template is compatible with collapsible tables, and cells using colspan or rowspan, in which case place the colspan/rowspan attribute between ! and {{diagonal split header …}}. It is not compatible with sortable tables, as the sort arrows are not drawn, but this problem can be resolved by using a second header row:
n City |
2025 | 2026 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nov | Dec | Jan | ||
| Roma | Rome | 8 | 1 | 6 |
| Venezia | Venice | 3 | 5 | 7 |
| Firenze | Florence | 4 | 9 | 2 |
