Further template category notes

This category contains pages in the template namespace. It should not be used to categorize articles or pages in other namespaces.

To add a template to this category:

• If the template has a separate documentation page (usually called "Template:template name/doc"), add
•  [[Template:Monodiv/doc]]
• to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add
•  <noinclude>[[Template:Monodiv/doc]]</noinclude>
• to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.

This category is an index of templates which use TemplateStyles. It is automatically populated by {{Uses TemplateStyles}}.

Usage

{{monodiv|
text line 1

text line 2

text line 3}}

renders as:

text line 1

text line 2

text line 3

This template is for formatting multi-line sections of content as plain, monospaced (nonproportional) text. It is a quick shorthand for the necessary CSS code. It is the multi-line version of {{mono}} and a replacement for ‎<tt>...‎</tt>, which is an obsolete element under HTML5. (Non-conforming features)

This template should be used where the content is being rendered in monospaced text for purely stylistic/display reasons, where this display has no particular semantic significance. Because it uses ‎<div>...‎</div> tags for formatting instead of ‎<span>...‎</span> tags, it can be used to wrap bulleted lists, along with div-based list templates like {{hlist}}.

It should not be used to indicate source code, nor for variables or variable input (use {{code}} or ‎<code>...‎</code> for code and {{var}} or ‎<var>...‎</var> for variables). For keyboard or samples, use ‎<kbd>...‎</kbd> or ‎<samp>...‎</samp> respectively.

When the content ends with a single closing curly brace (}), the content should be followed by <nowiki/>, for example, to mark up {foo}, use {{monodiv|{foo}<nowiki/>}} or {{monodiv|<nowiki>{foo}</nowiki>}}.

If the content contains pipe characters (|) not surrounded by ‎<nowiki>...‎</nowiki>, they must be escaped with | or {{!}}.

Parameters

There is only one parameter:

|1= or unnamed

The content to format as monospaced. If the content contains a = character, the parameter must be numbered with |1=.
