Hi,
I am in the process of creating an extension tag to suit my project
requirements.
Actually, we have an xml structure which should be processed using
Templates inside this extension implementation.
Briefly, I woud like to create pieces of a table using different
templates.
Example :
If I need a HTML Table with header "Agents" as follows :
Agents
Agent1
Agent2
Agent3
.
.
AgentN
For the above table with 1 column and N rows, the wiki text would look
something like :
{| border="1" cellpadding="2"
! Agents
|-
| Agent1
|-
| Agent2
|-
| Agent3
|-
.
.
| AgentN
|-
|}
In my case, I dont know the value of "N". This depends on the values from
XML.
So, I would like to create a template to process each row based on the
input from XML iteratively for N rows..
Wikitext for this template would look something like :
| {{{parameterName}}} |-
where parameterName's value could be : Agent1, Agent2, ....AgentN.
But the current mediawiki parser wont parse the above template properly
because it expects complete table syntax not pieces of it.
I am wondering if there is any workaround or way out to achieve this ?
Please let me know if this is not the right place to post questions about
mediawiki.
