> For those who missed 0.1, TableEdit lets you put a tag in a wiki  
> page, which is saved as a "Create Table Here" link to a Special page,  
> where the user can use forms to build a table without worrying about  
> wiki markup.  The tables that are put back in the wiki page have an  
> Edit link that allows you to load the table back into the Special  
> page for further editing.

> Changes:
> * Now uses $_SESSION for persistence prior to saving to the database  
> instead of cluttering the page itself with serialized data.
> * Schema change to support edit conflict handling
> * Rudimentary edit conflict handling
> * Now allows you to rotate the table to switch headings to be either  
> on top or on the left.
> * You can start with a table in either orientation by using  
> <newTableEdit/> for headings on top or <newVTableEdit/> for headings  
> on the side.
> * Various bug fixes...more probably introduced in the process.

> Works for me on MW 1.83 and MW 1.93 on MacOSX with the entropy (Marc  
> Liyanage) php5.1.2 and MySQL 4.026 or MySQL 5.0.24-standard.   
> Presumably works on other setups.
