Template:Note/doc

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

Usage

Method 1

The following displays the notification icon and the word 'Note:'. You can follow this with whatever text/images/markup you like.

{{note}} Try it this way!

Note: Try it this way!

Method 2

The following includes the text passed to the template, and uses a table to stop the text flowing round the icon.

{{note|Here is an extremely long note, which is so long that it is sufficiently wordy to run onto a second line, which would normally cause it to wrap round the icon, but because we passed it as a parameter instead of writing it after the template, it keeps its left alignment straight.}}

Note:

Here is an extremely long note, which is so long that it is sufficiently wordy to run onto a second line, which would normally cause it to wrap round the icon, but because we passed it as a parameter instead of writing it after the template, it keeps its left alignment straight.

Method 3

The following includes the text passed to the template, uses a table to stop the text flowing round the icon, and changes the word "Note".

{{note|Here is an extremely long note, which is so long that it is sufficiently wordy to run onto a second line, which would normally cause it to wrap round the icon, but because we passed it as a parameter instead of writing it after the template, it keeps its left alignment straight.|Cool thing}}

Cool thing:

Here is an extremely long note, which is so long that it is sufficiently wordy to run onto a second line, which would normally cause it to wrap round the icon, but because we passed it as a parameter instead of writing it after the template, it keeps its left alignment straight.

To achieve the same effect as Method 1 (i.e. text is allowed to wrap to the next line), simply only specify the second parameter:

{{note|2=Cool thing}}Try it this way!

Cool thing: Try it this way!
