Usage, Limitations, and Options

Usage

edit

Template name: FullWidthDrop. Place text for a heading in parameter one position. Place definitions for images, galleries, text, or an HTML table in parameter two position. The content hides initially in the collapsed state, and drops when the link button is clicked. The link toggles to collapse and expand the drop control.

The width of the control is always 100% of the page width. It is therefore intended for text and content that resembles the page itself. The drop contents can contain links. The template can be nested.

Limitations

edit

The width is always full-page. For those who need an expanding template or one with a narrower width , see the template DropImage.

In the event that long lines of code in pre tags are to be used, the width might extend to an unreasonable extent; In this event consider the use of the poem tags instead of the pre tags so that long lines will be wrapped. (Or use the pre-wrap property in pre.)

These few bulleted points relate to using tables as contents:

The content cannot reliably be a Wikitext table, since the pipe symbols confuse the code; use an HTML table instead.
The HTML attribute cellspacing can cause problems. Use the CSS styles for any spacing.
Use the HTML heading tags instead of wikitext headings. Headings within content will not be listed in the table of contents since most drops default to the closed state.
Use a numbered parameter for the content.

Bear in mind that the use of <pre></pre> tags will be needed for verbatim text layout, and if the block of text itself has these same tags within it, that the literals should be used to replace the ones within the text. (ie: use these instead; <pre> and </pre>). This avoids the corrupted functioning which would otherwise result.
