Template:Element cell/doc

Usage

The template produces a content in formatted CSS style for a single element cell (to be used in a periodic table). It is part of a series.

This section:

T:Element cell ... templates (mainspace)
... cell-named See {{PT}}	cell	cell property	cell image	/navbox {{/navbox}}	/isotopes {{isotopes (navbox)}}
Mer­cury80Hg​200.59	80 Hg	Hg200.592±0.003	Hg 80	Hg	Isotopes § List Hg 80
Used in wikitable pattern: {| |- | {{element cell-abc|80|Hg}} |}
All cell templates produce a table cell output in pattern: style="background:#12abdf;" | [[Gold]] Note that there is the pipe symbol (|) in the middle (added by the template), separating cell style and cell content.
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> title="" style="text-align:center; color:; background-color:; border:; ;"| </syntaxhighlight>			<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> title="Mousehover text (overrides title composed from 2, 3, ...)" style="text-align:center; color:transparent; background-color:Background color (overrides 6; can look like bg=#aabbcc); border:Sets border style (overrides 7. Like: border=3px solid red); Adds or overrides style settings (do not add the "" quotes);"| Atomic number [[Wikipedia page (links 2 different, like mercury)|Symbol]] </syntaxhighlight>

Parameters

All parameters are optional. <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

80 Hg

</syntaxhighlight>

80 Hg

Top row

Parameter 1, usually the atomic number, is put in the top row unlinked. If this parameter is present, a <br/> is added. The font color is set by parameter 5, usually the state of matter key.

Asterisk (*)

To add a plain asterisk, as is done to mark lanthanides and actinides, add them in <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1"><nowiki></syntaxhighlight> tags in parameter #1 like this: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

| title=", Lanthanides" style="text-align:center; color:#000000; background-color:#ffffff; border:none; ;"| <nowiki>*</nowiki>
Lanthanides

</syntaxhighlight>

Page link

The cell links to parameter 2, usually the element name. If the page name is not the element name, as with <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">[[Mercury (element)]]</syntaxhighlight>, the correct pagename can be set through <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">link=Mercury (element)</syntaxhighlight>.

Label

The link is labeled with parameter 3 (usually the symbol): <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">link=[[Aluminium|Al]]</syntaxhighlight>. If there is no link provided (no parameter 2, no link=), parameter 3 will show as unlinked text.

Background

The background color is set by parameter 6, usually the category name. It can be set by parameter bg: <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">bg=#aabbcc</syntaxhighlight>. Parameter bg is used for just a color, with no legend meaning (no text in the title).

Frame (cell border)

The frame style is set via parameter 7, usually the occurrence. It can be overridden by using <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">{{{1}}}</syntaxhighlight>. This sets the border (frame), but does not have a legend meaning (no text in the title).

Style

All style can be set (and overridden) by using the style parameter: <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">style=width:5em;</syntaxhighlight>. Do not add quotes ("").

Title

The title (mousehover text) is created from params 1: 6; 7; 5. (name: category; occurrence; state of matter).
The emercury example will give: <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">Mercury: transition metals; primordeal; liquid</syntaxhighlight>
When parameters <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">bg</syntaxhighlight> or <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">border</syntaxhighlight> are used, their setting is not added to the title (they are meaningless). The title can be set (overridden) to any text, including a blank, by using <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">title=...</syntaxhighlight>

Legend

The legend is composed from parameters 6, 5 and 7. It can be overridden by using <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">legend=Special meaning</syntaxhighlight>. (This can be useful in combination with setting <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">bg=...</syntaxhighlight>).

Example using parameters

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">

one three

</syntaxhighlight>
