The way this template is meant to work:


Usage is similar to {{tl|navbox}}, but with an additional distinction. Each row on the table can either be a "header", or it can have a label/data pair, or it can just be a data cell. These are mutually exclusive states so if you define a row to be both a header and a label/data pair, the label/data pair is overridden.

Usage

This template is intended as a meta-template, that is, a template that's used when constructing other templates. It's not meant for use directly in an article. See Help:Infobox for information on how to craft infoboxes in general.

Usage is similar to {{navbox}}, but with an additional distinction. Each row on the table can either be a "header", or it can have a label/data pair, or it can just be a data cell. These are mutually exclusive states so if you define a row to be both a header and a label/data pair, the label/data pair is overridden.

Note that if you want to insert an image elsewhere other than the top of the infobox, or insert other "freeform" data, using a row with just a "data" field allows for that sort of thing.

A row with a label but no data is not displayed. This allows for optional infobox contents.

Parameters

Mandatory:

name
The template page name that the "view/discuss/edit" links should point to. You can use {{subst:PAGENAME}}.
title
A title to put in the titlebar at the top.

Optional content:

image
An image to display at the top of the template. Use full image syntax, for example [[Image:example.png|200px]]. Image is centered by default.
caption
Text to put underneath the image.
header(n)
Text to use as a header in row n.
label(n)
Text to use as a label in row n.
data(n)
Text to display as data in row n.
below
Text to put in the bottom cell. The bottom cell is intended for footnotes, see-also, and other such information.


Optional CSS styling:

bodystyle
Applies to the infobox table as a whole
titlestyle
Applies only to the title cell
imagestyle
Applies to the cell the image is in (including the caption)
captionstyle
Applies to the text of the caption
headerstyle
Applies to all header cells
labelstyle
Applies to all label cells
datastyle
Applies to all data cells
belowstyle
Applies only to the below cell

Examples
