STARTSECTION -- marks the start of a section within a topic
- Section boundaries are defined with
%STARTSECTION{}%
and %ENDSECTION{}%
.
- Sections may be given a name to help identify them, and/or a type, which changes how they are used.
-
type="section"
- the default, used for a generic section, such as a named section used by INCLUDE.
-
type="include"
- like %STARTINCLUDE%
... %STOPINCLUDE%
except that you can have as many include blocks as you want (%STARTINCLUDE%
is restricted to only one).
-
type="templateonly"
- start position of text to be removed when a template topic is used. Use this to embed text that you do not want expanded when a new topic based on the template topic is created. TWikiTemplates has more.
-
type="expandvariables"
- start position where TWikiVariables get expanded when a new topic is created. As documented in TWikiTemplates#VariableExpansion, only certain variables get expanded when a new topic based on the template topic is created. All variables get expanded within a "expandvariables"
section.
- Syntax:
%STARTSECTION{"name"}% ................... %ENDSECTION{"name"}%
- Syntax:
%STARTSECTION{type="include"}% ........... %ENDSECTION{type="include"}%
- Syntax:
%STARTSECTION{type="templateonly"}% ...... %ENDSECTION{type="templateonly"}%
- Syntax:
%STARTSECTION{type="expandvariables"}% ... %ENDSECTION{type="expandvariables"}%
- Supported parameters:
Parameter: | Description: | Default |
"name" | Name of the section. Must be unique inside a topic. | Generated name |
type="..." | Type of the section; type "section" , "include" , "templateonly" , or "expandvariables" | "section" |
disablefixlinks="on" | Only for named sections: Bypass fixing WikiWord links if section is included from a topic in another web. Fixing links in included text such as from SomeLink to Thisweb.SomeLink is usually desirable so that links in included text still point to the same target. | fix links |
- Note: If a section is not given a name, it will be assigned one. Unnamed sections are assigned names starting with
_SECTION0
for the first unnamed section in the topic, _SECTION1
for the second, etc..
- Note: You can define nested sections. Do not overlap sections. Use named sections to make sure that the correct START and ENDs are matched. Section markers are not displayed when a topic is viewed.
