Template:Election box end

From ModelUSGov Wiki
Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

This template ends any table (with bar-brace "|}") and may be used with any other templates that begin a one-level table, except with template {{Collapse top}} which requires a {{collapse bottom}} to end a collapsible text.

This template duplicates {{s-end}} for technical reasons. See the documentation on that page. Any succession template ending with {{end}} should be changed to {{s-end}}.

Position

WARNING: Template {{end}} must be placed on a separate line for ending a table; otherwise, it inserts a literal bar-brace "|}" into the text.

Redirects

Other "table end" templates redirect here.

Alternatively, this template may take a parameter, such as {{End|Cricket series}}, to indicate which table start template it matches (in the example given, {{Infobox cricket series begin}}). The parameter has no technical function.

Example

{{election table|Template name|editlink=no|Summary of the May 2, 2011 election}}
|- style="text-align:right;"
! style="background-color:#E9E9E9; width:400; text-align:left;" colspan="2" | Party

Column-generating template families

The templates listed here are not interchangeable. For example, using {{col-float}} with {{col-end}} instead of {{col-float-end}} would leave a HTML "div" (division) open, potentially harming any subsequent formatting. <section begin="table" />

dagger Can the columns handle the wiki markup {| | || |- |} used to create tables? If not, templates that produce these elements (such as {{(!}}, {{!}}, {{!!}}, {{!-}}, {{!)}}) or HTML tags (<table>...</table>, <tr>...</tr>, etc.) will need to be used instead.<section end="table" />
