Images

To place images on a Wiki page, use:
{{image class="center" alt="DVD logo" title="An Image Link" url="http://wikkawiki.org/images/dvdvideo.gif" link="/Welcome"}}

Links can be external, or internal Wiki links. You don't have to enter a link at all, and in that case just an image will be inserted. You can also use the classes 'left' and 'right' to float images left and right. You don't need to use all those attributes, only url is essential.

Image scaling is also supported (a non-wikka addition by Rod) using 'width="val"' and 'height="val"' tags, for example {{image class="center" alt="DVD logo" title="An Image Link" url="http://wikkawiki.org/images/dvdvideo.gif" link="/Welcome" width="100" height="50"}} looks like:

Links

To link to other wiki-pages, write

a WikiName

or a forced link with [[ and ]] around it (everything after the first space will be shown as description)

or an image with a link
To link to external pages, write

a http-address inside the page, eg www.google.com

or a forced link with [[ and ]] around it (everything after the first space will be shown as description)

or an image with a link

or an InterWiki-link (see page for wiki-list)
To open a web page, use <A href=http://google.com>Google</A> Google
To open a web page in a new copy of your browser, use <A href="http://google.com" TARGET="_blank">Google</A> Google

These next 2 lines will not work on this Wiki because the refered docs do not exist. This is ok; they are merely an example of how to do it
To embed a reference to a document stored on a web server, use <A href="../dirname/demo.doc">Click Here</A> Click Here
To embed a reference to a document stored on a web server (and see it in a new browser window), use <A href="../dirname/demo.doc" TARGET="_blank">Click Here</A> Click Here

Tables

To create a table use this code:
{{table columns="3" cellpadding="5" cells="BIG;GREEN;FROGS;yes;yes;no;no;no;###"}} to give:

BIG	GREEN	FROGS
yes	yes	no
no	no

### means the cell is empty.

Colored Text

{{color c="blue" text="This is a test."}} gives:

This is a test.

If you want to use hex values:

{{color hex="#DD0000" text="This is another test."}} to give:

This is another test.

Floats

Left floated box - use two < signs before and after the block

Some text in a floated box hanging around

Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. This filler text is higher than the box so the next section starts on a new line below the box automatically.

Right floated box, use two > characters before and after the block

Some text in a floated box hanging around. And a little more to create a larger box. If the text in the box gets higher than the surrounding text, you'll need the "clearer" (see ::c::) to get new text to start on a new line below the box instead of next to the floated box.

Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler. Some more text as a filler.

Use ::c:: to clear floated blocks... as done just below

 

Code formatters

Simply use %%(formatter[;#number]) code %% - for the formatters, see the list below. If you add a number and it is enabled in the config, you will have line numbers starting at #number.

LANGUAGE	FORMATTER
Actionscript	actionscript
ADA	ada
Apache Log	apache
ASM	asm
ASP	asp
Bash	bash
C	c
C for Macs	c_mac
c#	csharp
C++	cpp
CAD DCL	caddcl
CadLisp	cadlisp
CSS	css
Delphi	delphi
HTML	html
Java	java
Javascript	javascript
Lisp	lisp
Lua	lua

With the same syntax you can also use Wikka's built-in formatters: email, ini and code. If you haven't installed GeSHi php will be formatted by Wikka's built-in formatter, too.

Embedded HTML

Use two doublequotes around the html-tags.

Converting HTML to Wiki

Visit http://diberri.dyndns.org/html2wiki.html
It allows you to paste HTML into a textbox and it will then convert it to Wikka Wiki markup (as well as a bunch of other Wiki dialects)

Alert Boxes

{{ alterbox text="this is some altert box text" c="blue" }} looks like:

this is some altert box text
