Template:Tag
Revision as of 17:17, 26 July 2018 by SMcCandlish (talk) (These are called attributes; no one who does HTML calls them "parameters".)
<tag>...</tag>
Template documentationThis template provides a quick way to mention an XML-style tag in a preformatted way. Mainly used in discussion/help pages.
Usage
- first parameter — (mandatory) the name of the HTML tag
- second parameter — what type of tag to display:
porpair– (default) display a matched pair of open-and-close tags:<font>...</font>- To suppress the ellipsis which appears between the tags, add an empty
|content=parameter
- To suppress the ellipsis which appears between the tags, add an empty
ooropen– display only the opening tag of an open-and-close pair:<span>corclose– display only the closing tag of an open-and-close pair:</span>sorsingle– display a single tag:<br />
- content= — the text content of the tags
- params= — any parameters to be included in the opening tag
