ਫਰਮਾ:Flatlist/doc

This template provides a WCAG/ISO-standards-compliant accessible alternative to comma- or dash- (or other single character-) separated lists, per w:WP:FLATLIST and w:WP:HLIST.

Usage

{{flatlist}} starts a horizontal list, such as:

• cat
• dog
• horse
• cow
• sheep
• pig

This template can be used with or without {{endflatlist}}. For navigation boxes using {{navbox}}, one can set |listclass=hlist, and achieve the same styling without using this template. For image captions, list (i.e. asterisk) markup does not work, so consider using {{hlist}} instead.

Optional parameters

class

Adds a CSS class to the containing div. Use nowraplinks to prevent links from wrapping.

style

Adds CSS styling to the containing div. Complex styles should not be used in articles (per WP:Deviations) but may be acceptable on user, project and talk pages.

Example: |style=border:solid 1px silver; background:lightyellow

indent

Indents the list by a number of standard indents, one indent being 1.6em. (Useful in an indented discussion thread.)

Example: |indent=2

sep

Alternative separator. Only , is supported.

Examples

Example

 {{flatlist|
 * [[cat]]
 * [[dog]]
 * [[horse]]
 * [[cow]]
 * [[sheep]]
 * [[pig]]
 }}

produces:

• cat
• dog

• sheep
• pig

Alternative syntax

Example

 {{startflatlist}}

Technical details

This template causes ordinary html list items to be displayed inline (horizontally), where they would normally display as block elements (vertically). The class also generates the interpuncts between list items and parentheses around nested lists. Some of the CSS used is not compatible with some older browsers, notably Internet Explorer 6 and 7.
