OK, I have xhtml which makes a table as you describe but have not found the wiki text which currently generates the xhtml which makes the extant list. Is this wiki text accessible to me? Thanks, [[User:Peasthope|Peasthope]] 19:37, 9 November 2012 (UTC) |

:I don't think XHTML has any bearing. The Wiki page is [[Template:Forth_Lessons]]. For an example of Wiki table markup, see [[Operating_system_image_installation_methods]]. It would take too long to explain it, so I've just done it instead. A table might be harder to maintain for no real advantage. I hope you noticed that already, before the change, moving a mouse over the link shows you the lesson number? --[[User:Quozl|Quozl]] 07:39, 13 November 2012 (UTC) |

Titles on Pages Versus Titles in the Index
Seems a little perverse that each lesson page is identified only "Forth Lesson n" with n in {0..22} while the index in the box has names without numbers. The numbers will add only two or three characters to each lesson name. If I add the numbers to the index box, will anyone object? Peasthope 00:14, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
- Sure, but can you make it a table? The varying width of numbers in a bullet list would make it harder to read. --Quozl 21:35, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
Good idea. Probably not this week but possibly next or the week after, Peasthope 01:21, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
