Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This 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:
    • p or pair(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
    • o or open – display only the opening tag of an open-and-close pair: <span>
    • c or close – display only the closing tag of an open-and-close pair: </span>
    • s or single – display a single tag: <br />
  • content= — the text content of the tags
  • params= — any parameters to be included in the opening tag

Examples

  • {{tag|ref}} ? <ref>...</ref>
  • {{tag|ref|content=}} ? <ref></ref>
  • {{tag|ref|content=hello}} ? <ref>hello</ref>
  • {{tag|font|content=foo}} ? <font>foo</font>
