Guide to ancestry, family history, and genealogy Wikitext usage on Family Search Wiki for tables and page division margins, padding, borders, and enhancements.

[|Family Search Wikitext]

Width and Height
Width can be coded in pixels of percentages Height uses an attribute coding: height:200px  '''PERCENTAGES WILL NOT WORK IN HEIGHT. ABOUT 1600 PIXELS ACROSS A PAGE BUT SOMETIMES DIFFICULT TO JUDGE, SO WE NORMALLY USE PERCANTAGES FOR THE WIDTH. Andre: The pixel display often depends on how wide your browser is set and what other displays you have plus the font family so percentages work better.

CODING WILL WORK THE SAME WITH OR WITHOUT A SPACE AFTER A COLON, BUT IT'S EASIER TO SPOT ERRORS WITH A SPACE AFTER THE COLON.

Tables
{| Opening curly bracket and pipe |} Closing pipe and curly brack ROWS: |- Pipe and dash Have NO CLOSING TAG!!! CELLS: | Just a pipe. Have NO CLOSING tag!! NOTE: INDIVIDUAL CELLS WON'T DISPLAY UNTIL SOMETHING IS IN THEM. BORDERS: {|class=wikitable Wiki uses LOTS of tables! The widest text will determine the width of a column of cells. class="wikitable" has some templates coded in Works much better if you generate your data first in the order it's going to be displayed, then add your table coding.

Breadcrumb Trails
There is a capacity to put in up to 5 links. The last one, no matter where you are, will be the last page you're on in the sequence. '''BEST PRACTICE IS TO CREATE A SANDBOX WITH THE BASIC CODING IN IT. Links 3 & 4 fill up more generally with foreign countries where you have parishes and other subdivisions
