Template:Em

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

Usage

This is similar to the {{Gap}} template, but the parameter is always interpreted with em as the unit. An em (or em space) was originally the width of the character “M”.

This template uses CSS styling. To insert an actual em space (U+2003) use {{emspace}}.

*Leftward text{{em|.25}}Rightward text.
*Leftward text{{em|.5}}Rightward text.
*Leftward text{{em}}Rightward text.
*Leftward text{{em|2}}Rightward text.
*Leftward text{{em|4}}Rightward text.

results in:

• Leftward text⁠Rightward text.
• Leftward text⁠Rightward text.
• Leftward text⁠Rightward text.
• Leftward text⁠Rightward text.
• Leftward text⁠Rightward text.

Note that the default is 1 em.

Adds a blank space of the specified ''em'' width.
