How-to help needed: BBcode tables?

I'm trying to make a table like this one but for the order tracking threads. I feel like it'd be nicer to read if we had, say, 3 columns : Status, Date, # Days.

My post here is all kinds of jacked up and I've been playing around with btr, btd, btable, btd-width, btrhead, and I can't get any of it to display like the first one I linked. It also keeps messing with the boundaries of the actual post within the forum - alignment is to the right of the post # in the top right corner in some cases, or appears to lock on to the section that has my avatar. I'll copy and paste it into a separate reply beneath this first post. It also creates a huge gap between replies. I'm really not sure what's up with it but maybe it's just late.

Example of what works on other forums but not here :
[table=head]place|driver|class|car|time

Apparently quoting it puts it back within proper normal boundaries, but...wtf still.

I was able to fix it by adding the btable tag.

The big vertical whitespace can be eliminated if you remove all of the carriage returns from the mark-up (which is admittedly inconvenient since it makes edits difficult).

Also, you can add a header, like this:

Finally, as was exposed in the above thread, these do not show up in the app.

Weird, ok thanks. I had tried w/ btable but not btable=100. Is 100 the rows, size, or what?

edit - looks like that denotes the width as a ratio of the post.
