Template:Mw-datatable/doc

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template enables row hover highlighting via wikitable class modifiers mw-datatable and hover-highlight.

In addition to adding row highlights, mw-datatable also changes the background of the cells to white. To only add a highlight, use hover-highlight.

Usage. {{row hover highlight}}[change]

Basic usage:

Wikitext <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" highlight="1-2">

1 2 3
1-1 2-1 3-1
1-2 2-2 3-2
</syntaxhighlight>

Rendered result

1 2 3
1-1 2-1 3-1
1-2 2-2 3-2

class=mw-datatable can be used in combination with class=wikitable, in which case the non-header cells will have a white background.

Wikitext <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" highlight="1-2">

1 2 3
1-1 2-1 3-1
1-2 2-2 3-2
</syntaxhighlight>

Rendered result

1 2 3
1-1 2-1 3-1
1-2 2-2 3-2

To keep the light gray background from class=wikitable, use class=hover-highlight:

Wikitext <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" highlight="1-2">

1 2 3
1-1 2-1 3-1
1-2 2-2 3-2
</syntaxhighlight>

Rendered result

1 2 3
1-1 2-1 3-1
1-2 2-2 3-2

Usage. {{mw-datatable}}. Easier to remember for white background.[change]

If you want a white background for data cells, then this may be easier to remember since the template and class name are the same.

Wikitext <syntaxhighlight lang=wikitext highlight="1-2">

1 2 3
1-1 2-1 3-1
1-2 2-2 3-2
</syntaxhighlight>

Rendered result

1 2 3
1-1 2-1 3-1
1-2 2-2 3-2
