This is a documentation subpage for Template:Ctr. It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.

The ctr template is used align text and numbers within tables to the center of the cell.

Examples

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| {{ctr}} | N/A
| {{ctr}} | Example of centred text.
|-
| {{ctr}} | Some centred text.
| {{ctr}} | etc.
|}

yields:

N/A	Example of centred text.
Some centred text.	etc.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| {{ctr}} | N/A || {{ctr}} | Example of centred text.
|-
| {{ctr}} | Some centred text. || {{ctr}} | etc.
|}

yields:

N/A	Example of centred text.
Some centred text.	etc.

Combining with colspan

To combine with colspan, place {{ctr}} first, followed by a space, then by colspan.

Example:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| {{ctr}} colspan=3 | Text over 3 columns
|-
| {{ctr}} | Column #1
| {{ctr}} | Column #2
| {{ctr}} | Column #3
|-
| {{ctr}} | A single column
| {{ctr}} colspan=2 | Text over two columns
|}

will yield:

Text over 3 columns
Column #1	Column #2	Column #3
A single column	Text over two columns

Remember, most browsers will render a header row as centered:

{| class="wikitable"
! Header row
! Another header row
|-
| Standard row
| Another standard row
|}

gives:

Header row	Another header row
Standard row	Another standard row
