Compose tips

  • Ccfilter: Collapse text..

    "Collapse" filter type - the text entered between the tags [collapse] and [/collapse] can be collapsed/expanded. If the opening tag has "collapsed" indication, the original state of the text will be minimized. The indicating tag can be placed in the opening tag after the "=". Example: [collapse collapsed = Click here to see the text]. If you do not specify an indication, it will use the the text defined in the filter settings. It is also allowed to use [collapse collapsed title = Click here to see expanded the text].

  • Content in [[double square brackets]] will be linked to existing content with that title, or a page to create that content. Links can contain an optional bar, "|". Content on the left of the bar is the target; to the right, the link shown. Links to pages outside this site are allowed. They must start with one of the following: "http", "https", "ftp", or "mailto", and can exist either by themselves, or on the left of the bar. Examples:
  • [[simple link]] - will go to the content titled "simple link" or a page to create that content.
  • [[this is the target|this is the source]] - will present "this is the source" as a link to "this is the target", or a page to create that content.
  • [[http://www.example.com|this is the source]] - will present "this is the source" as a link to http://www.example.com.
  • [[http://www.example.com]] - will present "http://www.example.com" as a link to http://www.example.com.
  • Allowed HTML tags: <a> <p> <p style> <span> <div> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <img> <map> <area> <hr> <br> <br /> <ul> <ol> <li> <dl> <dt> <dd> <table> <tr> <td> <em> <b> <u> <i> <strong> <font> <del> <ins> <sub> <sup> <quote> <blockquote> <pre> <address> <code> <cite> <embed> <object> <param> <strike> <caption> <fieldset> <center> <a> <p> <span> <div> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <img> <map> <area> <hr> <br> <br /> <ul> <ol> <li> <dl> <dt> <dd> <table> <tr> <td> <em> <b> <u> <i> <strong> <font> <del> <ins> <sub> <sup> <quote> <blockquote> <pre> <address> <code> <cite> <embed> <object> <strike> <caption> <fieldset> <param> <style>
