    Block modifier syntax:

    CSS attributes can be applied to blocks (paragraphs, headers, etc.). CSS classes are specifed with "(class)"; CSS IDs are specified with "(#id)"; both can be specified with "(class#id)". An arbtirary CSS style can be applied by using "{style}". Finally, language attributes are applied using "[language]".

    Additionally, alignment and indentation shorthands are provided. To left-align, right-align, center, and justify text, use "<", ">", "=", and "<>", respectively. "(" left-indents a block 1em for each occurrence, and ")" right-indents similarly.

    Tables have additional options. "^", "-", and "~" specify top, middle, and bottom vertical alignment. The "_" attribute on a cell indicates that it is a table header.

    The examples below illustrate these attributes.

    [tablemanager:table_id,pagination,admin_links,column=?|start=?|end=?,attribute=?|attribute=?|...]
    All arguments bar table_id are optional:
    • table_id = table number
    • pagination = list length (numeric or NULL for all results)
    • admin_links = TRUE or FALSE to enable/ disable administrative links
    • column=?|start=?|end=? = can be in any order:
      • column = column to search on (numeric)
      • start = match from
      • end = match end (optional)
    • attributes = add as many attributes as you like separated by '|', for example border=2|bgcolor=yellow
