Cdml Elements
(redirection from Cdml Element)
CdmlElements are used to generate a wide variety of layout elements that are beyond the power of classical WikiMarkup. CDML is short for Content Description Markup Language. The syntax of CDML looks like this:
[[elementname][parameter=value][...]text]
Simple CdmlElements can look like this:
[[elementname]]
[[elementname]text]
[[elementname][parametername=value]]
Note that CDML is tolerant:
- The order of parameters and text does not matter.
- Parameters are optional and have default values.
- Unknown parameter assignments are simply ignored.
- Unknown CdmlElements show as plain text.
But:
- there must be no whitespace from the first left bracket to the first closing bracket after the elementname.
- there must be no whitespace around the parametername.
