{{#ifeq: {{PAGENAME}}|{{ROOTPAGENAME}}|{{High-use| 14,000+ }}}} |
|||
==Usage== |
|||
Wraps a short span of text in <code><nowiki><syntaxhighlight></nowiki></code> tags (see [[mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight]]). This template should be used for short samples; longer content should use {{tag|pre}} or {{tag|syntaxhighlight}}. See [[Help:Wiki markup]] for an explanation of what the various tags do. |
|||
If the content includes an equals sign (=), you must specify the parameter explicitly: <code><nowiki>{{code|1=date=30 Feb 2010}}</nowiki></code>. |
|||
The template uses the <code><nowiki><syntaxhighlight></nowiki></code> tag with the attribute <code>inline=1</code>. This works like the combination of the <code><nowiki><code></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki><nowiki></nowiki></code> tags, applied to the expanded wikitext. For example, <code><nowiki>{{code|some '''wiki''' text}}</nowiki></code> will '''''not''''' render the word "wiki" in bold, and will render the tripled-single-quotes: |
|||
:{{code|some '''wiki''' text}} |
|||
However, <code><nowiki>{{code|a {{template}} call}}</nowiki></code> will still invoke the template: |
|||
:{{code|a {{template}} call}} |
|||
Use {{tag|nowiki}} around the template name to avoid this problem: |
|||
:{{code|a <nowiki>{{template}}</nowiki> call}} |
|||
When used inline with regular text, {{tnull|code}} generally looks best and is easiest to read when it is explicitly spaced apart from the regular text: |
|||
:{{code|foo <nowiki>{{code|bar baz}}</nowiki> quux.}} |
|||
is well spaced: |
|||
:foo {{code|bar baz}} quux. |
|||
versus: |
|||
:{{code|foo <nowiki>{{code|bar baz}}</nowiki> quux.}} |
|||
which is going to be visually confusing for many: |
|||
:foo {{code|bar baz}} quux. |
|||
because "foo" and "{{code|bar}}" will seem more closely associated than "{{code|bar}}" and "{{code|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 {{para|2}}, or more explicitly as {{para|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 {{code|html4strict}} and {{code|html5}} are valid values, as are {{code|php}}, {{code|perl}}, {{code|css}}, {{code|javascript}}, {{code|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 [[Wikipedia:Template substitution|substituted]]. |
|||
===Examples=== |
|||
{{markup |
|||
|<nowiki>Lorem {{code|ipsum '''dolor'''}} sit amet</nowiki> |
|||
|Lorem {{code|ipsum '''dolor'''}} sit amet |
|||
|<nowiki>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.</nowiki> |
|||
|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. |
|||
|<nowiki>If the code contains an [[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 [[:bugzilla:5138]].</nowiki> |
|||
|If the code contains an [[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 [[:bugzilla:5138]]. |
|||
}} |
|||
===Included templates=== |
|||
Embedded templates do not function as expected inside {{tl|code}}; for longer, free-form blocks of code, which can contain templates such as {{tl|var}} and {{tl|samp}}, use {{tag|code}} as a wrapper instead of this template. |
|||
Templates used inside {{tl|code}} expose the rendered HTML— this can be useful. For example: |
|||
<div style="overflow:auto;"> |
|||
{{markup |
|||
|1=<nowiki>{{code| |
|||
{{cite web |title=Title |url=http://example.org}} |
|||
}}</nowiki> |
|||
|2={{code| |
|||
{{cite web |title=Title |url=http://example.org}} |
|||
}} |
|||
}} |
|||
</div> |
|||
The above example shows the HTML rendered by the citation template, including the hidden metadata. |
