Template:Hidden/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Hidden (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Overview

This template creates a dynamic navigation box using style sheet declarations in MediaWiki:Common.css and Javascript code in MediaWiki:Common.js. It displays the first parameter (the heading) with a [show] link on the right. If [show] is clicked by the user, the second parameter (the body) is displayed below the heading and the [show] link becomes [hide]. Clicking on [hide] then hides the body again and the [hide] link becomes [show] again.

Usage

Only two parameters are required for this template:

header 

text for header (or title); alternative to using unnamed parameter {{{1}}}

content 

text for content (or body); alternative to using unnamed parameter {{{2}}}

Optional parameters

headercss 

add CSS to the header.

contentcss 

add CSS to the content box.

fw1 

the font-weight for the heading (default "bold")

fw2 

the font-weight for the body (default "normal")

bg1 

the background-color for the heading (default "transparent")

bg2 

the background-color for the body (default "transparent")

ta1 

the text-align for the heading (default "center")

ta2 

the text-align for the body (default "left")

Note: This template will not respect the user preference "justify paragraphs".

Lorem ipsum

Result

lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

Issues

First

A long header may overlap the show/hide button (!):

{{hidden|Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.|def}}

yields:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

def

Second

With ta1=right or a long header the header overlaps the show/hide link (at least in some browsers):

Example with long header

abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc abc

def

Example with ta1=right

abc

def

Example with ta1=right & first line blank

 

abc

def
