replies: text: I dunno, I just emulated the football squad templates. If there's a way it could be done without screwing up pages it'll be great. Besides I think it may work if there's only one column. --Howard the Duck 05:53, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually the reason two columns would suck is because they would sort separately rather than as a whole. Also I was thinking about adding height and weight to the rows, which would make them wider and less conducive to a two-column format. — CharlotteWebb 06:42, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I actually tried adding the sortable element but it'll screw up with . --Howard the Duck 06:54, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That would work better as a separate table below the actual roster, I think. Or to the right, but not part of the areas being sorted. — CharlotteWebb 06:57, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I tried using  and  right after  but it didn't screw up, it just needs a little formatting to make it work. However I'm concerned if the roster list is very long, it'll leave a lot of white space at the right side of the monitor, and it can be fixed by having 2 columns (although I have a big monitor so I won't know the case for smaller ones). How about having a fixed width for one column but it automatically goes to the 48%-1%-48% convention when it's split? --Howard the Duck 07:08, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

text: You can it between player and school... but I'm too lazy to do that and it might screw up... --Howard the Duck 05:59, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I will give it a shot. I will need to make some additional parameters in the header template to show the columns, and then show them. I have confidence. Let me know how I break it! :-) Rolando 17:23, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Ugh. What fun. There is now too much white space and I can't figure it out. If you want, you can revert this. I do think the changes to  are improvements. They make it more flexible. Rolando 01:52, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It took me hours to figure this one out, good luck on this. --Howard the Duck 02:14, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

text: The template is screwed up. However, I'm too dumb on how to fix it. The gaps should be removed so that they'll stretch vertically for only 100 pixels. --Howard the Duck 13:10, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

text: OK, I think it is good now. Let me know if/where there are problems, and I will try to address them. Thanks! Rolando 17:13, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

there are conversion templates to do height and weight. there is a very poorly named template out there doing something very similar to this one: . Check it out. Rolando 05:58, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
