Teamplaid:Code

{{{1}}}

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

Ùsaid - Usage

Wraps a short span of text in <syntaxhighlight> tags (see mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight). This template should be used for short samples; longer content should use <pre>...</pre> or <syntaxhighlight>...</syntaxhighlight>. See Help:Wikitext for an explanation of what the various tags do.

If the content includes an equals sign (=), you must specify the parameter explicitly: {{Code|1=date=30 Feb 2010}}.

The template uses the <syntaxhighlight> tag with the attribute enclose="none". This works like the combination of the <code> and <nowiki> tags, applied to the expanded wikitext. For example, {{Code|some '''wiki''' text}} will not render the word "wiki" in bold, and will render the tripled-single-quotes:

some '''wiki''' text

However, {{Code|a {{template}} call}} will still invoke the template:

a [[:Teamplaid:Template]] call

Use <nowiki>...</nowiki> around the template name to avoid this problem:

a {{template}} call

When used inline with regular text, {{code}} generally looks best and is easiest to read when it is explicitly spaced apart from the regular text:

foo  {{Code|bar baz}}  quux.

is well spaced:

foo  bar baz  quux.

versus:

foo {{Code|bar baz}} quux.

which is going to be visually confusing for many:

foo bar baz quux.

because "foo" and "bar" will seem more closely associated than "bar" and "baz"; the width of the space character in a monospaced font is almost always larger than in a proportional font.

Use parameter {{{2}}} (unnamed, as |2=, or more explicitly as |lang=) to specify a language for mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight GeSHi. This option defaults to plain-text, i.e. no highlighting. There is no highlighting option for wikitext as a markup language, though html4strict and html5 are valid values, as are php, perl, css, javascript, mysql and many others. Attempting to use an invalid one causes a list of valid ones to be displayed in place of the template output, when the page is previewed or saved.

This template does not need to be substituted.

Eisimpleirean - Examples

Markup	Renders as
Lorem {{Code|ipsum '''dolor'''}} sit amet	Lorem ipsum '''dolor''' sit amet
The declaration {{Code |lang=cpp |int foo(const std::string& bar, const std::vector<long double*>& baz);}} is the prototype for a function defined later.	The declaration int foo(const std::string& bar, const std::vector<long double*>& baz); is the prototype for a function defined later.
If the code contains an {{enUici|equals sign}}, such as {{Code |lang=javascript |code=Var img = document.getElementsByTagName("img");}}, you must identify the first parameter explicitly as {{{1}}} or {{{Code}}}; see also {{enUici|:bugzilla:5138}}.	If the code contains an equals sign, such as Var img = document.getElementsByTagName("img");, you must identify the first parameter explicitly as {{{1}}} or {{{Code}}}; see also :bugzilla:5138.

Included templates

Embedded templates do not function as expected inside {{Code}}; for longer, free-form blocks of code, which can contain templates such as {{Var}} and {{Samp}}, use <code>...</code> as a wrapper instead of this template.

Templates used inside {{Code}} expose the rendered HTML— this can be useful. For example:

{{Markup |1={{Code| {{Cite web |title=Title |url=http://example.org}} }} |2=<cite class="citation web">[http://example.org "Title"].</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=unknown&rft.btitle=Title&rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.org&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fgd.wiktionary.org%3ATeamplaid%3ACode" class="Z3988"></span>'"`UNIQ--templatestyles-00000026-QINU`"'

The above example shows the HTML rendered by the citation template, including the hidden metadata.
