    v1 v1  
     1= Using HTML in Wiki Text =
     2
     3Trac supports inserting HTML into any wiki context, accomplished using the `#!html` [wiki:WikiProcessors WikiProcessor].
     4
     5However a constraint is that this HTML has to be well-formed.
     6In particular you can't insert a start tag in an `#!html` block,
     7resume normal wiki text and insert the corresponding end tag in a
     8second `#!html` block.
     9
     10Fortunately, for creating styled <div>s, <span>s  or even complex tables
     11containing arbitrary Wiki text, there's a powerful alternative: use of
     12dedicated `#!div`, `#!span` and `#!table`, `#!tr`, `#!td` and `#!th` blocks.
     13
     14Those Wiki processors are built-in, and does not require installing any additional packages.
     15
     16== How to use `#!html` == #HowtoUseHTML
     17To inform the wiki engine that a block of text should be treated as HTML, use the ''html'' processor.
     18
     19||= Wiki Markup =||= Display =||
     20{{{#!td
     21  {{{
     22  {{{
     23  #!html
     24  <h1 style="text-align: right; color: blue">HTML Test</h1>
     25  }}}
     26  }}}
     27}}}
     28{{{#!td style="padding-left: 2em"
     29  {{{
     30  #!html
     31  <h1 style="text-align: right; color: blue">HTML Test</h1>
     32  }}}
     33}}}
     34
     35Note that Trac sanitizes your HTML code before displaying it. That means that if you try to use potentially dangerous constructs such as Javascript event handlers, those will be removed from the output.
     36
     37Since 0.11, the filtering is done by Genshi, and as such, the produced output will be a well-formed fragment of HTML. As noted above in the introduction, this mean that you can no longer use two HTML blocks, one for opening a <div>, the second for closing it, in order to wrap arbitrary wiki text.
     38The new way to wrap any wiki content inside a <div> is to use the `#!div` Wiki  processor.

     115
     116}}}
     117
     118Note that the contents of a `#!div` block are contained in one or more paragraphs, which have a non-zero top and bottom margin. This leads to the top and bottom padding in the example above. To remove the top and bottom margin of the contents, add the `compact` class to the `#!div`. Another predefined class besides `wikipage` and `compact` is `important`, which can be used to make a paragraph stand out. Extra CSS classes can be defined via the `site/style.css` file for example, see TracInterfaceCustomization#SiteAppearance.
     119
     120For spans, you should rather use the Macro call syntax:
     121||= Wiki Markup =||
     122{{{#!td
     123  {{{
     124  Hello
     125  [[span(''WORLD'' (click [#anchor here]), style=color: green; font-size: 120%, id=anchor)]]!
     126  }}}
     127}}}
     128|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     129||= Display =||
     130{{{#!td style="padding-left: 2em"
     131  Hello
     132  [[span(''WORLD'' (click [#anchor here]), style=color: green; font-size: 120%, id=anchor)]]!
     133}}}
     134
     135== How to use `#!td` and other table related processors == #Tables
     136
     137`#!td` or `#!th` processors are actually the main ones, for creating table data and header cells, respectively. The other processors `#!table` and `#!tr` are not required for introducing a table structure, as `#!td` and `#!th` will do this automatically. The `|-` row separator can be used to start a new row when needed, but some may prefer to use a `#!tr` block for that, as this introduces a more formal grouping and offers the possibility to use an extra level of indentation. The main purpose of the `#!table` and `#!tr` is to give the possibility to specify HTML attributes, like ''style'' or ''valign'' to these elements.

     264
     265Note that by default tables are assigned the "wiki" CSS class, which gives a distinctive look to the header cells and a default border to the table and cells (as can be seen for the tables on this page). By removing this class (`#!table class=""`), one regains complete control on the table presentation. In particular, neither the table, the rows nor the cells will have a border, so this is a more effective way to get such an effect than having to specify a `style="border: no"` parameter everywhere.

     312== HTML comments ==
     313HTML comments are stripped from the output of the `html` processor. To add an HTML comment to a wiki page, use the `htmlcomment` processor (available since 0.12). For example, the following code block:
     314||= Wiki Markup =||
     315{{{#!td
     316  {{{
     317  {{{
     318  #!htmlcomment
     319  This block is translated to an HTML comment.
     320  It can contain <tags> and &entities; that will not be escaped in the output.
     321  }}}
     322  }}}
     323}}}

     331  -->
     332  }}}
     333}}}
     334
     335Please note that the character sequence "`--`" is not allowed in HTML comments, and will generate a rendering error.
