PmWiki | Test / Divs

(:div:) markup examples
This page is a sandbox for playing with the new (:div:) markup. The basic div markup works like advanced tables, using a (:div:) ... (:divend:) sequence.

This text is before the division.

(:div id='foo' style='background:
#ffffcc' :)
Here is my text in the division.

* Other markups are allowed
* here also

(:divend:)

Now we're after the division.

Now we're after the division.

As with advanced tables, a (:div:) or advanced table markup will automatically close any previous (:div:) section. This means that divs and advanced tables do not nest (we may relax this in a future version, but that's the way it's going to work for now).

There is also a >>...<< shortcut that allows WikiStyles to be easily applied to divs. Some examples:

%define=Pm bgcolor=#ffeeff
font-style=italic%
%define=John bgcolor=#eeffee%
%define=shouts font-weight=bold
font-size=larger%
%define=meekly font-size=smaller%

>>Pm<<
Hello, this is some text from Pm.

>>John<<
And here is some text from John.

>>Pm<< 
And now we're back to Pm again.  Pm can
enter multiple paragraphs and
* lists
* lists
* lists

>>John shouts<<
And now John has something really
important to say!

>>Pm meekly right<<
okay already!

Any WikiStyle specification will work between the >> and <<, thus:

>>id=foo class=special<<
Same as [@(:div id=foo
class=special:)@]

Same as (:div id=foo class=special:)

>>bgcolor=#ffffdd right
blue<<
Right aligned blue text in a yellow
background

>>border='2px solid red'
padding=4px<<
