navbar
When one of the following examples is placed inside a given template, it adds navbar navigational functionality:
Template documentation | This template is used on 7,700,000+ pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this template should first be tested in its /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added to this page in one single edit. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
General
- {{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|mini=1}}
- {{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|plain=1}}
- {{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|fontstyle=color:green}}
{{subst:PAGENAME}} will be substituted with the template's name when parsed by the servers. For example, {{navbar|navbar/doc}} gives:Font-size
Font-size is 88% when used in a navbar, and 100% when nested in a navbox. In the navbar, the weight is "normal"; when nested in navbox, it takes on the outer setting. The middot is bold.
Examples

Notes
Navbar is contained within a ... or other inline element, because the HTML Tidy extension will 'fix' situations where it finds block elements inside inline elements.
