====== Interactivity > Interactive Table ======

:!: **New in 3.14**. This page allows the creation of an table containing a number of interactive cells. These can be:

  * **Information cells **containing a button which, when clicked can open additional information in a lightbox, or reveal additional information within the cell itself.

  * or **Question cells** containing a text box in the cell, or a button which, when clicked, opens a lightbox containing a question that is answered in a **text box** or via a **drop down menu**.

Additional options allow the page to be set up so that interactive cells are all available immediately, or only after previous cells have been interacted with.
