Template:Dotted summary row

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Description

A simple template to obtain a dotted row to be used into summaries.

Example

Code (testing various font-sizes too)

<table width="50%" align="center">{{Dotted summary row|Title of the chapter 1|14}}
{{Dotted summary row|Title of the chapter 2, much longer than a single row because it needs to be to show the wrapping effect|15}}
{{Dotted summary row|{{x-larger|Title of the chapter 1}}|{{x-larger|16}}}}
{{Dotted summary row|{{smaller|Title of the chapter 1}}|{{smaller|17}}}}

Result

Title of the chapter 1	14
Title of the chapter 2, much longer than a single row because it needs to be to show the wrapping effect	15
Title of the chapter 1, x-larger	16
Title of the chapter 1, smaller	17

css requirements

To see dots you need these css additive settings:

.dotted {
     background-image:url('http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/61/Dots.png');
     background-repeat:no-repeat;
     background-position:left bottom;
}
.opaque {
     background-color:white; 
}
