Template:Helpbox/doc

This template allows a help-related navigation template to be set up relatively quickly by supplying it with one or more lists of links.

Usual syntax

{{Helpbox
| name    =  <!-- or: | templatename = -->
| title   =  <!-- or, if templatename used: | name = -->

| group1  = 
| list1   = 

| group2  = 
| list2   = 

<!-- etc, to: -->

| group20 = 
| list20  = 

}}

Parameters

title  (or, if templatename used (see below), name)

The template's title, centered at the top of the template.

list_n

(i.e. list1, list2, etc.) The body of the template, usually a list of links. Format is inline, although the text can be entered on separate lines if the entire list is enclosed within <div>...</div>. At least one list parameter is required. Each list_n may be preceded by a corresponding group_n parameter, if provided (see below). There is a limit of 20 lists/groups in a template.

Optional

(i.e. group1, group2, etc.) If specified, text appears in a header displayed above list_n.

first unnamed parameter

Inline CSS for the template.
