Template:Endflatlist
![]() | This template uses TemplateStyles: |
This template provides a WCAG/ISO-standards-compliant accessible alternative to comma- or dash- (or other single character-) separated lists, per WP:FLATLIST and WP:HLIST.
Usage
edit{{flatlist}} starts a horizontal list, such as:
For navigation boxes using {{navbox}}, one can set |listclass=hlist
, and achieve the same styling without using this template. For image captions, list (i.e. asterisk) markup does not work, so consider using {{hlist}} instead.
Parameters
editUsed to create plain (i.e. unbulleted) lists.
Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Extra Classes | class | Adds extra CSS classes to the containing div. | String | optional |
CSS Style | style | Adds extra CSS properties to the containing div. Complex styles should not be used in articles (per [[MOS:DEVIATIONS]]) but may be acceptable on user, project and talk pages.
| String | optional |
Indent | indent | Indents the list by a number of standard indents (one indent being 1.6[[em (typography)|em]]). (Useful in an indented discussion thread.)
| Number | optional |

sep | sep | Item separator. | Unknown | optional |

Technical details
editThis template uses the .hlist
CSS class defined in MediaWiki:Common.css to generate horizontal lists. It causes ordinary html list items to be displayed inline (horizontally), where they would normally display as block elements (vertically). The class also generates the interpuncts between list items and parentheses around nested lists. Some of the CSS used is not compatible with some older browsers, notably Internet Explorer 6 and 7.
