Sample entry

From OpenWordBase

Article originally entered just to create categories. Here are some coding examples to get you started writing wiki. We will add more as needed. You can also refer to Help:Contents or mw:Help:Contents for further reading.

Embedded pages

{{User:Admin}}

or

{{:Sample Page}}

Note: it is a good idea to enclose embedded pages in a separate DIV element, so it can be sized or floated.

Images

Caption text, which can include links and styles, too.

Upload a file using the link in the toolbox (bottom box in left navigation column). Then, open the entry into which you wish to place the image. Place the image in the form [[Image:sample.jpg|{options}]]

Options

• thumb, thumbnail, or frame: Controls how the image is formatted
• left, right, center, none: Controls the alignment of the image on the page
• {width}px: Resizes the image to the given width in pixels
• {caption text}
• Special cases:
  • page=1: displays the specified page when showing a djvu file.

The options can be given in any order, with the pipe character '|' between. If a given option does not match any of the other possibilities, it is assumed to be the caption text. Caption text can contain wiki links or other formatting.

Gallery of images

It's easy to make a gallery of thumbnails with the <gallery> tag. First, upload your files using the link in the toolbox (bottom box in left navigation column). Then, open the entry into which you wish to place the image gallery. The syntax is:

<gallery>
Image:{filename}|{caption}
Image:{filename}|{caption}
{...}
</gallery>

Captions are optional, and may contain wiki links or other formatting.

Example

<gallery>
Image:Example.jpg|Item 1
Image:Example.jpg|a link to [[Help:Contents]]
Image:Example.jpg
Image:Example.jpg
Image:Example.jpg|''italic caption''
</gallery>
