Template:Hid/doc

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Use[change source]

This template hides a string of text. If the contents of a cell of a sortable table are prefixed with a hidden string, the cell will sort using the hidden string.

The syntax for this template is:

{{hid|var1}}

where var1 is a string of text.

The use of this template is illustrated by the following sortable table:

House of Windsor
Wikitext Hidden prefix sort without key sort with key
{{hid|A}}[[Edward VII of the United Kingdom]] <span class="sortkey">A</span> Edward VII of the United Kingdom Edward VII of the United Kingdom
{{hid|B}}[[George V of the United Kingdom]] <span class="sortkey">B</span> George V of the United Kingdom George V of the United Kingdom
{{hid|C}}[[Edward VIII of the United Kingdom]] <span class="sortkey">C</span> Edward VIII of the United Kingdom Edward VIII of the United Kingdom
{{hid|D}}[[George VI of the United Kingdom]] <span class="sortkey">D</span> George VI of the United Kingdom George VI of the United Kingdom
{{hid|E}}[[Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom]] <span class="sortkey">E</span> Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom
