Template:Infobox
General purpose Infobox, can be used as a base for other Infobox Templates or custom Infoboxes which Template existence is not justified.
Usage
An Infobox consists of a title, an image, and the data in a key-value form, which may also be organized with headers. There can also be a footnote. Everything is optional, but if a key if used, its value must also be set. Setting a value without its key will do nothing.
The title is set with the header0
parameter and the image with the image
parameter, which value must be the file name of an existing image (without File:
prefix). images
is an alternative that offers more flexibility for the representation of the subject, in particular it allows the insertion of a Tabbed Gallery. It may also be used for purposes other than displaying images.
50 fields/headers are available for the data. Headers can be set with header1
, header2
, ..., header50
while data are set with key1
and its respective value1
, up to key50
/value50
. The lines will be presented from top to bottom as the number increase, and it is not necessary to use consecutive numbers.
The use of a given header will disable its corresponding key/value, so if header10
was used, then key10
and value10
will do nothing.
A footnote can be provided with the footnote
parameter.
The Infobox' background can be changed with the background
parameter, which must be a valid value for the CSS property background-color
. The border color can also be changed with the border
parameter, and must be a valid color for the CSS property border
.
Examples
{{Infobox |background = #000020 |border = #000080 |header0 = header0 |image = No Image.svg |header1 = header1 |key2 = key2 |value2 = value2 |key3 = key3 |value3 = value3 |header4 = header4 |key5 = key5 |value5 = value5 |key6 = key6 |value6 = value6 |key7 = key7 |value7 = value7 }} | ||||||
Numbers do not have to be contiguous, this may be useful for future proofing, for example if one desires to add something between 2 and 5 with key3/value3 later without having to change 5, 10, 11, 13 and 17. {{Infobox |header0 = header0 |image = No Image.svg |header1 = header1 |key2 = key2 |value2 = value2 |key5 = key5 |value5 = value5 |header10 = header10 |key11 = key11 |value11 = value11 |key13 = key13 |value13 = value13 |key17 = key17 |value17 = value17 }} | ||||||
