To define a table in Asciidoc is easy. Table cells are separated basically by pipe symbols (|
). But if we want to use a pipe-symbol as cell content we need to escape the pipe-symbol with a backslash (\
)
The following Asciidoc code is transformed to a correct HTML table output:
.Sample table with pipe-symbol in cell content |=== | Operator | Method | a + b | a.plus(b) | a - b | a.minus(b) | a \| b | a.or(b) |===
The generated HTML table looks like this for example:
