{{tlx|Navbar}} provides a small "view '''·''' talk '''·''' edit" navigation bar. It is primarily used for content-heavy templates and other transcluded content blocks, so that the content inside the template or block is more easily editable {{lang|la|in situ}} where it was found, without having track it down through examining transclusion code. {{tnull|Navbar}}'s extremely high use rate and consequent protection level are because it is integrated as a feature into numerous [[WP:NAVBOX|navigation box]] and [[WP:INFOBOX|infobox]] templates used in millions of articles. It is also a regular feature of many internal-use templates and tables of the Wikipedia, Help, and Template [[WP:NAMESPACE|namespaces]]. | |||
==Usage== | |||
===General=== | |||
When one of the following examples is placed inside a given [[Wikipedia:Navigation templates|template]] (or block of content used for [[Wikipedia:Transclusion#Selective transclusion|selective transclusion]]), it adds basic navbar navigational functionality: | |||
:<code><nowiki>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|mini=y}}</nowiki></code> | |||
:<code><nowiki>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|plain=y}}</nowiki></code> | |||
:<code><nowiki>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|fontstyle=color: green; font-style: italic;}}</nowiki></code> | |||
The <code><nowiki>{{subst:PAGENAME}}</nowiki></code> will be [[WP:SUBST|substituted]] with the page name of the real location of the content when parsed by the servers. For example, <code><nowiki>{{navbar|Navbar/doc}}</nowiki></code> gives:<br />{{navbar|Navbar/doc}} | |||
When used in content that is selectively transcluded but which is also used as-is in its original location, this template should be wrapped in {{xtag|includeonly|p}} markup, so that it only appears when transcluded. | |||
===Font size and weight === | |||
Font-size is 88% when used in a topical navbar template or in plain text, and 100% when nested in a navbox or infobox (because those templates' text size is already reduced; the "100%" is relative to the surrounding template's own content, not that of the entire page). The {{para|fontstyle}} parameter can be used to adjust font size as needed (e.g. to reduce font size even more when the template is used inside a block element with a large font size). Do not abuse this to make excessively small text (i.e. less than 85% of the normal page text), since that causes [[MOS:SMALLTEXT|accessibility problems]] for many readers. | |||
In a topical navbar, the weight is "normal"; when nested in a navbox or infobox, it inherits the style of the surrounding content. The middot bullets are bold for better visibility. | |||
=== Block level element === | |||
The template generates block-level markup with {{tag|div}} tags, and therefore, any surrounding markup cannot include {{tag|span}} tags, which would cause a [[Special:LintErrors/misc-tidy-replacement-issues|div-span-flip]] lint error. | |||
==Examples== | |||
===Required parameters=== | |||
*<code><nowiki>{{navbar|Template Name}}</nowiki></code> – the template name is required. | |||
===Optional parameters=== | |||
{| class="wikitable" | |||
! Options !! Parameters !! Produces... !! "Shortcut" template | |||
|- | |||
| Basic || <code><nowiki>{{navbar|Template Name}}</nowiki></code> || {{navbar|Navbar/doc}} || | |||
|- | |||
| Different text || <code><nowiki>{{navbar|Template Name|</nowiki>'''text'''<nowiki>=This template:}}</nowiki></code> || {{navbar|Navbar/doc|text=This template:}} || | |||
|- | |||
| Without "This box:" text || <code><nowiki>{{navbar|Template Name|</nowiki>'''plain'''<nowiki>=y}}</nowiki></code> || {{navbar|Navbar/doc|plain=y}} || {{tl|view}} | |||
|- | |||
| Short version || <code><nowiki>{{navbar|Template Name|</nowiki>'''mini'''<nowiki>=y}}</nowiki></code> || {{navbar|Navbar/doc|mini=y}} || {{tl|v}} | |||
|- | |||
| With brackets || <code><nowiki>{{navbar|Template Name|</nowiki>'''brackets'''<nowiki>=y}}</nowiki></code> || {{navbar|Navbar/doc|brackets=y}} || | |||
|- | |||
| With font styling examples ([[Span and div|span]]) || <code><nowiki>{{navbar|Template Name|</nowiki>'''fontstyle'''<nowiki>=color: green; font-style: italic;}}</nowiki></code> || {{navbar|Navbar/doc|fontstyle=color: green; font-style: italic;}} || | |||
|- | |||
| With whole-template styling examples ([[Span and div|div]]) || <code><nowiki>{{navbar|Template Name|</nowiki>'''style'''<nowiki>=float:right; background: Beige; padding: 5px; border: 1px solid;}}</nowiki></code> || {{navbar|Navbar/doc|style=float:right; background: Beige; padding: 5px; border: 1px solid;}} || | |||
|- | |||
| History, move, and watchlist links || <code><nowiki>{{navbar|template=Template Name|e|t|h|m|w}}</nowiki></code> || {{navbar|template=Navbar/doc|e|t|h|m|w}} | |||
|} | |||
Note that to show the history, move, and watchlist links, {{para|template}} needs to be set to the template value specifically. Individual values can be left out of this list, e.g. <code><nowiki>{{navbar|template=Template Name|h|m|w}}</nowiki></code> will only show the view, history, move, and watchlist links. | |||
===Shortcut templates === | |||
The <code>mini=y</code> and <code>plain=y</code> parameters can be avoided by using the {{tlx|v}} or {{tlx|view}} templates, respectively, instead. | |||
{{tl|view}} and {{tl|v}} also support changing the shown links, for example only view and edit, or only view and talk: | |||
{| class="wikitable" | |||
|- | |||
! Code | |||
! Result | |||
|- | |||
|{{demo|br=<td>|<nowiki>{{view|template=view/doc}}</nowiki>}} | |||
|- | |||
|{{demo|br=<td>|<nowiki>{{view|template=view/doc|talk}}</nowiki>}} | |||
|- | |||
|{{demo|br=<td>|<nowiki>{{view|template=view/doc|talk|edit}}</nowiki>}} | |||
|- | |||
|{{demo|br=<td>|<nowiki>{{v|template=v/doc}}</nowiki>}} | |||
|- | |||
|{{demo|br=<td>|<nowiki>{{v|template=v/doc|t}}</nowiki>}} | |||
|- | |||
|{{demo|br=<td>|<nowiki>{{v|template=v/doc|t|e}}</nowiki>}} | |||
|} | |||
==Notes== | |||
Navbar is contained within a {{tag|div}} in order to accommodate a horizontal unnumbered list. This means it cannot be placed inside a {{tag|span}} or other inline element, because the [[HTML Tidy]] extension will 'fix' situations where it finds block elements inside inline elements. | |||
==Prepackaged== | |||
;{{tl|Navbar-header}}: Positions {{navbar|Navbar/doc|mini=1}} on the right edge of the line, often used in non-collapsible navbox heading. | |||
;{{tl|Navbar-collapsible}}: For use in conjunction with [[Help:Collapsing|collapsible tables]], floats {{navbar|Navbar/doc|mini=1}} opposite of the [hide]/[show] feature. | |||
