Template:Flatlist

Template documentation

Usage

{{Flatlist}} starts a horizontal list, such as:

• cat
• dog
• horse
• cow
• sheep
• pig

The bottom margin is inherited from the current container. Normally this will be 0.5em. This template can be used with or without {{endflatlist}}.

For navigation boxes using {{navbox}}, one can set |listclass=hlist, and achieve the same styling without using this template.

Examples

{{flatlist |
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
}}

• cat
• dog
• horse
• cow
• sheep
• pig

Alternative syntax

{{flatlist}}
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
{{endflatlist}}

• cat
• dog
• horse
• cow
• sheep
• pig

Syntax for ordered lists

{{flatlist | class=hnum |
# [[first]]
# [[second]]
# [[third]]
# [[fourth]]
# [[fifth]]
# [[sixth]]
}}

1. first
2. second
3. third
4. fourth
5. fifth
6. sixth

Parameters

• class – adds a CSS class to the containing div.
• style – adds CSS style options. Complex styles should not be used in articles (per wp:deviations) but may be acceptable on user, project, and talk pages.

Example: |style=border:solid 1px silver; background:lightyellow

• indent – indents the list by a number of standard indents (one indent being 1.6em), particularly handy for inclusion in an indented discussion thread.

Example: |indent=2
