==Usage== | |||
Wraps a short span of text in <code><nowiki><syntaxhighlight></nowiki></code> tags (see [[mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight]]). This template should be used for short samples; longer content should use {{tag|pre}} or {{tag|syntaxhighlight}}. See [[Help:Wiki markup]] for an explanation of what the various tags do. | |||
If the content includes an equals sign (=), you must specify the parameter explicitly: <code><nowiki>{{code|1=date=30 Feb 2010}}</nowiki></code>. | |||
The template uses the <code><nowiki><syntaxhighlight></nowiki></code> tag with the attribute <code>inline=1</code>. This works like the combination of the <code><nowiki><code></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki><nowiki></nowiki></code> tags, applied to the expanded wikitext. For example, <code><nowiki>{{code|some '''wiki''' text}}</nowiki></code> will '''''not''''' render the word "wiki" in bold, and will render the tripled-single-quotes: | |||
:{{code|some '''wiki''' text}} | |||
However, <code><nowiki>{{code|a {{template}} call}}</nowiki></code> will still invoke the template: | |||
:{{code|a {{template}} call}} | |||
Use {{tag|nowiki}} around the template name to avoid this problem: | |||
:{{code|a <nowiki>{{template}}</nowiki> call}} | |||
When used inline with regular text, {{tnull|code}} generally looks best and is easiest to read when it is explicitly spaced apart from the regular text: | |||
:{{code|foo <nowiki>{{code|bar baz}}</nowiki> quux.}} | |||
is well spaced: | |||
:foo {{code|bar baz}} quux. | |||
versus: | |||
:{{code|foo <nowiki>{{code|bar baz}}</nowiki> quux.}} | |||
which is going to be visually confusing for many: | |||
:foo {{code|bar baz}} quux. | |||
because "foo" and "{{code|bar}}" will seem more closely associated than "{{code|bar}}" and "{{code|baz}}"; the width of the space character in a monospaced font is almost always larger than in a proportional font. | |||
Use parameter {{{2}}} (unnamed, as {{para|2}}, or more explicitly as {{para|lang}}) to specify a language for [[mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight]]. This option defaults to plain-text, i.e. no highlighting. There is no highlighting option for wikitext as a markup language, though {{code|html4strict}} and {{code|html5}} are valid values, as are {{code|php}}, {{code|perl}}, {{code|css}}, {{code|javascript}}, {{code|mysql}} and many others. Attempting to use an invalid one causes a list of valid ones to be displayed in place of the template output, when the page is previewed or saved. | |||
This template does not need to be [[Wikipedia:Template substitution|substituted]]. | |||
===Examples=== | |||
{{markup | |||
|<nowiki>Lorem {{code|ipsum '''dolor'''}} sit amet</nowiki> | |||
|Lorem {{code|ipsum '''dolor'''}} sit amet | |||
|<nowiki>The declaration {{code |lang=cpp |int foo(const std::string& bar, const std::vector<long double*>& baz);}} is the prototype for a function defined later.</nowiki> | |||
|The declaration {{code |lang=cpp |int foo(const std::string& bar, const std::vector<long double*>& baz);}} is the prototype for a function defined later. | |||
|<nowiki>If the code contains an [[equals sign]], such as {{code |lang=javascript |code=var img = document.getElementsByTagName("img");}}, you must identify the first parameter explicitly as {{{1}}} or {{{code}}}; see also [[:bugzilla:5138]].</nowiki> | |||

===Included templates=== | |||
Embedded templates do not function as expected inside {{tl|code}}; for longer, free-form blocks of code, which can contain templates such as {{tl|var}} and {{tl|samp}}, use {{tag|code}} as a wrapper instead of this template. | |||

<div style="overflow:auto;"> | |||
{{markup | |||
|1=<nowiki>{{code| | |||
{{cite web |title=Title |url=http://example.org}} | |||
}}</nowiki> | |||

![]() | This template is used on 49,000+ pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
Wraps a short span of text in <syntaxhighlight>
tags (see mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight). This template should be used for short samples; longer content should use <pre>...</pre>
or <syntaxhighlight>...</syntaxhighlight>
. See Help:Wiki markup for an explanation of what the various tags do.
If the content includes an equals sign (=), you must specify the parameter explicitly: {{code|1=date=30 Feb 2010}}
.
The template uses the <syntaxhighlight>
tag with the attribute inline=1
. This works like the combination of the <code>
and <nowiki>
tags, applied to the expanded wikitext. For example, {{code|some '''wiki''' text}}
will not render the word "wiki" in bold, and will render the tripled-single-quotes:

The template uses the <syntaxhighlight>
tag with the attribute inline=1
. This works like the combination of the <code>
and <nowiki>
tags, applied to the expanded wikitext. For example, {{code|some '''wiki''' text}}
will not render the word "wiki" in bold, and will render the tripled-single-quotes:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
However, {{code|a {{template}} call}}
will still invoke the template:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
Use <nowiki>...</nowiki>
around the template name to avoid this problem:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
When used inline with regular text, {{code}}
generally looks best and is easiest to read when it is explicitly spaced apart from the regular text:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
is well spaced:
- foo Template loop detected: Template:Code quux.
versus:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
which is going to be visually confusing for many:
- foo Template loop detected: Template:Code quux.
because "foo" and "Template loop detected: Template:Code" will seem more closely associated than "Template loop detected: Template:Code" and "Template loop detected: Template:Code"; the width of the space character in a monospaced font is almost always larger than in a proportional font.
Use parameter {{{2}}} (unnamed, as |2=
, or more explicitly as |lang=
) to specify a language for mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight. This option defaults to plain-text, i.e. no highlighting. There is no highlighting option for wikitext as a markup language, though Template loop detected: Template:Code and Template loop detected: Template:Code are valid values, as are Template loop detected: Template:Code, Template loop detected: Template:Code, Template loop detected: Template:Code, Template loop detected: Template:Code, Template loop detected: Template:Code and many others. Attempting to use an invalid one causes a list of valid ones to be displayed in place of the template output, when the page is previewed or saved.
This template does not need to be substituted.
