Ability to set tables to be collapsed?

+5
−0

With this post I have a really big table, and it takes up quite a bit of space. I could fold it over (add extra columns, fold table into a 8x25 table instead of a 2x100), but that is, ofc, extra work, and the ability to instead mark the table so it's "collapsed" (not visible) by default would be nice.

For now, as a workaround, you can use detail tags to create collapsible sections (I've also used this to hide large images).

For example

<details>
<summary>Heading</summary>

Content goes here

</details>

Renders as

Heading

Content goes here

While not as feature rich as one might like (you can't do the mentioned fold of a 2x100 table into an 8x25), it will at least keep the post a manageable size.

Folding the table was really ment as an alternate solution. This is basically what I want, but better integrated into tables
