P4:: do you know how can i add some [code] formatting to pages and why when i press just single [ENTER] it doesn't work? ;)
- The simplest way to learn how to format pages is to look at existing ones ;). <code><pre>CODE</pre></code> should work - according to [[1]] Simple Returns are ignored you might use
oder a double return (new paragraph?). See [[2]] --Joda 09:39, 19 March 2007 (CDT)
- There are different ways.
Just code looks like this.
pre puts things in a box and prevents wiki markup from having '''too ''much''''' ''effect''.
I used pre in addition to code in the example Joda mentioned because the indentation was interpreted as wiki markup, but just pre alone tends to give the same rendering. Adding a space in front of each line should have worked as well.<br>
should be avoided. If it's absolutely necessary (do you really need arbitrary line breaks when you have paragraphs?), use<br />
. Or, if appropriate,<pre></pre>
or a space in front of each line. —Jonathan 10:57, 19 March 2007 (CDT)
