 <ow:link name="OpenWiki" href="ow.asp?OpenWiki" date="2005-05-02T12:00:00+01:00">Open Wiki</ow:link>

  offers many system options to the administrator of an

 <ow:link name="OpenWiki" href="ow.asp?OpenWiki" date="2005-05-02T12:00:00+01:00">Open Wiki</ow:link>

  site, so the formatting rules may differ between various

 <ow:link name="OpenWiki" href="ow.asp?OpenWiki" date="2005-05-02T12:00:00+01:00">Open Wiki</ow:link>

  sites.

 <p />

  This particular wiki has every system option turned on except the one that would give editors the ability to enter raw HTML into a page (with some minor exceptions to that exception

 <img src="ow/images/icons/emoticon-wink.gif" width="14" height="12" alt="" />

  ).

 <h3>The Basics</h3>

 <p />

-<ul>

 <li>Forget HTML. It is not allowed. So <b>bold</b> will not appear in a bold font, but instead as you see it right now. The & character references will not work either.</li>

 </ul>

 <p />

-<ul>

 <li>Do not indent paragraphs.</li>

 </ul>

 <p />

-<ul>

 <li>Words wrap and fill as needed.</li>

 </ul>

 <p />

-<ul>

 <li>Leave a blank line between paragraphs.</li>

 </ul>

 <p />

-<ul>

 <li>Type 4 or more minus/dash/hyphen (-) characters to create a horizontal rule.</li>

 </ul>

 <p />

-<ul>

 <li>URL's and email addresses are automatically hyperlinked.</li>

 </ul>

 <p />

-<ul>

-<li>

 <ow:link name="WikiName" href="ow.asp?WikiName" date="2005-05-02T12:00:00+01:00">Wiki Name</ow:link>

 s are automatically hyperlinked. A

 <ow:link name="WikiName" href="ow.asp?WikiName" date="2005-05-02T12:00:00+01:00">Wiki Name</ow:link>

  conforms to the

 <ow:link name="LinkPattern" href="ow.asp?LinkPattern" date="2005-05-02T12:00:00+01:00">Link Pattern</ow:link>

 , which basically is a word containing more than one capital letter where the capitals aren't right next to each other. In other words, simply

 <ow:link name="SmashWordsTogetherLikeSo" href="ow.asp?p=SmashWordsTogetherLikeSo&a=edit">SmashWordsTogetherLikeSo</ow:link>

 .

 </li>

 </ul>

 <p />

  That's basically all you need to know to get started. Following are more basic rules. For advanced formatting rules see

 <ow:link name="HelpOnEditing" href="ow.asp?HelpOnEditing" date="2005-05-02T12:00:00+01:00">Help On Editing</ow:link>

 .

 <p />

 <p />

 <p />

 <a name="h2" />

 <h3>Bold, Italic, Underscore, Strikethrough</h3>

 <p />

  To mark text as

 <b>bold</b>

  enclose text by two asterisks (*) characters on both sides. To mark text as

 <i>italic</i>

  enclose text by two slash (/) characters on both sides. To mark text

 <u>underlined</u>

  enclose text by two underscore (_) characters on both sides. To mark text

 <strike>strikethrough</strike>

  enclose text by two dash (-) characters on both sides.

 <p />

 <pre class="code"> **Some bold text**, //some italic text//, and **//some bold and italic text//** __Some underlined text__ --Some strikethrough text-- </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

 <b>Some bold text</b>

 ,

 <i>some italic text</i>

 , and

-<b>

 <i>some bold and italic text</i>

 </b>

 <br />

 <u>Some underlined text</u>

 <strike>Some strikethrough text</strike>

 <p />

  OpenWiki also supports the "old" style of placing emphasis on text which is used by several original wikis.

 <p />

 <pre class="code"> ''2 quotes are italic'', '''3 quotes are bold''', and '''''5 quotes are bold and italic''''' </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

 <em>2 quotes are italic</em>

 ,

 <strong>3 quotes are bold</strong>

 , and

-<em>

 <strong>5 quotes are bold and italic</strong>

 </em>

 <p />

  Note: whether the "new" and/or "old" style of placing emphasis on text is in effect depends on the system options as configured by the administrator of this site.

 <h3>Lists</h3>

 <p />

  All lists start with 2 spaces at the beginning of a line. Sublists are created by adding an additional 2 spaces for every level that you want to add. See also

Third subitem of //second item// i. subitem 1 i. subitem 2 3. Third item 1.#17 another item 1. yet another one 4. Fourth item a.#17 another item a. yet another one 5.

 <h4>Dictionary Lists</h4>

 <p />

  Terms with indented definitions: [without a blank line between term and definition]

 <pre class="code"> ; Term One : Definition for One (indented) ; Term Two : Definition for Two (indented) ; Term Three : Definition for Three (indented) ; Term (indented) : Definition (indented two levels) ; Term (indented twice) : Definition (indented to third level) </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

-<dl>

 <dt> Term One</dt>

 <dd> Definition for One (indented)</dd>

 <dt> Term Two</dt>

 <dd> Definition for Two (indented)</dd>

 </dl>

 </dl>

 </dl>

 <p />

 <p />

 <a name="h8" />

 <h4>Mixing Lists</h4>

  You can also mix lists, for example:

 <p />

 <pre class="code"> * First bulleted item * Second bulleted item 1. First subitem of **second item** Some more text about first subitem.... End of this subitem. 2. Second subitem of **second item** * Last bulleted item </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

-<ul>

 <li>First bulleted item</li>

 <li>Second bulleted item</li>

-<ol type="1">

-<li>

 First subitem of

 <b>second item</b>

 </li>

 <br />

  Some more text about first subitem....

 <br />

  End of this subitem.

-<li>

 Second subitem of

 <b>second item</b>

 </li>

 </ol>

 <li>Last bulleted item</li>

 </ul>

 <p />

 <p />

 <a name="h9" />

 <h3>Indented text</h3>

 <p />

 <pre class="code"> : Paragraph to be indented (quote-block) : Paragraph indented more : Paragraph indented to third level </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

-<dl>

 <dt />

 <dd>Paragraph to be indented (quote-block)</dd>

-<dl>

 <dt />

 <dd>Paragraph indented more</dd>

-<dl>

 <dt />

 <dd>Paragraph indented to third level</dd>

 </dl>

 </dl>

 </dl>

 <p />

 <p />

 <a name="h10" />

 <h3>Preformatted text</h3>

 <p />

 <p />

 <a name="h11" />

 <h3>Sourcecode</h3>

 <p />

  If you want to display sourcecode use the

 <tt><code></tt>

  tag or enclose the source by three acolades (e.g. {{{some code}}}).

 <p />

  Singleline example:

 <pre class="code"> The command {{{foo := bar + 1;}}} will add 1 to bar and assign it to foo. </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

  The command

 <tt>foo := bar + 1;</tt>

  will add 1 to bar and assign it to foo.

 <p />

  Multiline example:

 <pre class="code"> {{{ begin foo := bar + 1; end; }}} </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

 <pre class="code"> begin foo := bar + 1; end; </pre>

 <p />

  Note that within sourcecode most features won't work, such as: automatic hyperlinking of URLs,

 <ow:link name="WikiName" href="ow.asp?WikiName" date="2005-05-02T12:00:00+01:00">Wiki Name</ow:link>

 s, making text italic, etc. What still does work within sourcecode is the ability to highlight text by using three single quotes and the ability to use the

 <tt><nowiki></tt>

  tag.

 <p />

  Example:

 <pre class="code"> <code> begin '''foo := bar + 1;''' foo := foo << 1; return foo; end; </code> </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

-<pre class="code">

  begin

 <b>foo := bar + 1;</b>

  foo := foo << 1; return foo; end;

 </pre>

 <p />

 <a name="h12" />

 <h3>Tables</h3>

 <p />

 <pre class="code"> || **ID** || **Name** || **Description** || || 123 || John Foo || Some foo user || || 456 || Mary Richardson || Contact person from Foo Corp. || </pre>

 <p />

  will appear as:

 <p />

-<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" border="1" class="wiki">

-<tr class="wiki">

-<td class="wiki">

 <b>ID</b>

 </td>

-<td class="wiki">

 <b>Name</b>

 </td>

-<td class="wiki">

 <b>Description</b>

 </td>

 </tr>

-<tr class="wiki">

 <td class="wiki"> 123 </td>

 <td class="wiki"> John Foo </td>

 <td class="wiki"> Some foo user </td>

 </tr>

-<tr class="wiki">

 <td class="wiki"> 456 </td>

 <td class="wiki"> Mary Richardson </td>

 <td class="wiki"> Contact person from Foo Corp. </td>

 </tr>

 </table>
