Template documentation

This documentation is transcluded from قالب:Wbr/doc. (edit | history)

Wbr indicates a word break opportunity. This template includes the HTML tag <wbr />, which is used to tell the browser of an optional, non-hyphenated line-break. It can be used with:

• {{nbsp}} or the equivalent   (non-breaking space)
• {{nowrap}} or the equivalent <span style="white-space: nowrap;">...</span> or <span class="nowrap">...</span> (character string that will not break even at a normal space)

to carefully control line-breaking where this is important.

This template can safely be substituted, though there is no particular reason to do so. For breaking up long words, use {{Soft hyphen}} instead.

Usage

Use is simple; there are no parameters:

• {{wbr}}

Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes

This template can be used to cause an indentation after a linebreak, in unbulleted lists inside infoboxes and in tables with constrained cell widths, by using {{wbr}}  between words in an entry, so that when they wrap they are not mistaken for separate entries. See example infobox to the side.

Example infobox (rendered to the side of the example code):

{{Infobox film|
|name=Test Infobox II: The Revenge
|...
|starring={{Plainlist|
* Jane Smith
* {{nobr|Johannes-Friedrich}}{{wbr}} Zauberzunge{{wbr}} {{nobr|von der Hasenpfeffer}}
* John Garcia
}}
|...
}}

Breaking up slashes

{{further}} is used for small sets of further information, often used at the top of a section.

Usage

{{further|Page 1|...|Page 15'...}}

• Up to 15 parameters are permitted: only the first is mandatory.
• The list is dynamically generated so that the word "and" is always placed between the final two entries.
• If more than 15 entries are supplied, a message will be displayed pointing out the problem.
• You can use parameters l1 to l15 to specify alternative labels for the links.

NB

make sure to start label parameters with a lowercase el (l), not a one (1) or pipe (|)

adding newline characters will break page links

Example

Code	Result
{{further|Page}}
{{further|Page|Page 2}}
{{further|Page|Page 2|Page 3...}}
{{further|Page|Page 2|l2=Alternate title for Page 2...}}

And so on up to 15 parameters.

Link to subsection

It possible to direct this template to link a particular section within another page.

Technical details

This template encapsulates the code <wbr />&#8203;, i.e. the HTML5 line break opportunity element followed by the HTML character entity for the character. This approach is superior to using either one or the other in isolation, for increased browser support. The <wbr /> element is compatible with all browsers except Internet Explorer inclusive of and since version 7 (as of September 2015). Meanwhile, the ZWS character is compatible with all browsers except Internet Explorer earlier than (but not inclusive of) version 7. Thus, between the two approaches, the dual use of which has no ill effects, this template works in all browsers still likely to be in use, including Internet Explorer regardless of version.
