Template:Tnull/doc

Usage

Tnull is used to nullify templates in the monospaced font. It is similar to {{tlx}} in the way that it has support for many parameters.

Example

Typing {{tnull|foo|bar|baz|boo}} in the edit window would yield {{foo|bar|baz|boo}} in the rendered page.

Special character handling

"Template:Padlr" (equality sign)

If there is a "=" character (equality/equals sign) in any parameter, it must be replaced with = [or {{[[Template:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]}}?]:

{{tnull|click|image=image name|width=width|height=height|link=page name}}

Or you can use parameter-number=value as in:

{{tnull|click|2=image=image name|3=width=width|4=height=height|5=link=page name}}

Either method would yield the following output:

{{click|image=image name|width=width|height=height|link=page name}}

"Template:Padlr" (vertical bar, pipe)

If a second consecutive pipe (|) is used to denote that a parameter has been skipped, you must replace it with | as in:

{{tnull|look from|Alan||all the Alans}}

That would yield the following displayed output:

{{look from|Alan||all the Alans}}

General-purpose formatting

Comparison of template-linking templates according to their style

	Link style →	Linked	Unlinked	Linked with subst	Linked including braces	Linked with alternative text
Text style ↓	↓ {{tlg}} options1 →	DEFAULT	nolink=yes	subst=yes	braceinside=yes	alttext=Foo 2=Foo
normal	DEFAULT	{{tlg}}1 {{tl}} {{tlp|1|2|...}}2 {{Template:tlu}}3	{{tlf}}2	{{subst:tls}} {{subst:tlsp|1|2|...}} {{subst:Template:tlsu}}3	{{tn}}	{{tla}}
code	code=yes	{{tl2}} {{tlx}} {{Template:tlxu}}3	{{tlc}}2 {{tld}}2 {{tnull}}	{{subst:tlxs}}	N/A

bold	bold=yes	{{tlb}}	N/A
bold+code	code=yes	{{tlxb}}
italic+code	code=yes	{{tlxi}}
1  {{tlg}} is the most general, allowing any combination of text style and/or link style options. 2  Prevents wrapping of text by placing it inside <span class="nowrap">...</span> tags. 3  Allows links to templates in any namespace. 4  {{tlg|plaincode=yes}} uses <code style="border:none; background-color:transparent;">...</code>. 5  Displays monospaced font using <span style="font-family:monospace;">...</span>.
