7. Images


To place images on a Wiki page, use:
{{image class="center" alt="DVD logo" title="An Image Link" url="modules/pnWikka/pnimages/dvdvideo.gif" link="RecentChanges"}}
dvd logo
Links can be external, or internal Wiki links. You don't have to enter a link at all, and in that case just an image will be inserted. You can also use the classes 'left' and 'right' to float images left and right. You don't need to use all those attributes, only url is essential.


8. Links


To link to other wiki pages, write
- a Wiki Name
  1. or a forced link with [[ and ]] around it (everything after the first space will be shown as description)
    1. Example: [[JennaPage Jenna's Home Page]]
- or an image with a link

To link to external pages, write
  1. a http address inside the page
  2. or a forced link with [[ and ]] around it (everything after the first space will be shown as description)
    1. Example: [[http://example.com/jenna/ Jenna's Home Page]]
- or an image with a link
- or an InterWiki link (see InterWiki page for wiki list)
  1. Examples:
    1. WikkaWiki
    2. CSS
      1. Happy


9. Tables


To create a table use this code:
{{table columns="3" cellpadding="1" cells="BIG;GREEN;FROGS;yes;yes;no;no;no;###"}} to give:

BIG GREEN FROGS
yes yes no
no no


### means the cell is empty.


10. Colored Text


{{color c="blue" text="This is a test."}} gives:

This is a test.

If you want to use hex values:

{{color hex="#DD0000" text="This is another test."}} to give:

Use two doublequotes around the html tags.
