• Use a leading asterisk (*) for first level

  • Use two leading asterisks (**) for second level, etc.
• Use * for bullet lists, # for numbered lists (mix at will)
• Semicolon-term-colon-definition for definition lists:

term here

definition here, as in the <DL><DT><DD> list

• One line for each item.
• Other leading whitespace signals preformatted text, changes font.

Headings

• '!' at the start of a line makes a small heading
• '!!' at the start of a line makes a medium heading
• '!!!' at the start of a line makes a large heading

Fonts

• Indent with one or more spaces to use a monospace font:

 This is in monospace

This is not

Indented Paragraphs

(Quotes)

• semicolon-colon -- works like <BLOCKQUOTE>

this is an indented block of text

Emphasis

• Use doubled single-quotes () for emphasis (usually italics'')
• Use doubled underscores () for strong emphasis (usually bold__)
• Mix them at will: bold italics
• Emphasis can be used multiple times within a line, but cannot cross line boundaries:

this will not work

References

If the instructions in this section seem confusing, look at the source for this page (by hitting the EditText link at the bottom of this page.)

• Hyperlinks to other pages within the Wiki are made by placing the page name in square brackets: ?this is a page link or ?UsingWikiWords (preferred)
• Hyperlinks to external pages are done like this: http://www.wcsb.org/
• You can name the links by providing a name, a bar (|) and then the hyperlink or pagename: PhpWiki home page - the front page
• You can suppress linking to old-style references and URIs by preceeding the word with a '!', e.g. NotLinkedAsWikiName, http://not.linked.to/
• ?1, ^[2], ^[3], ^[4] refer to remote references. Click ?EditLinks on the edit form to enter URLs. These differ from the newer linking scheme; references are unique to a page.
• Also, the old way of linking URL's is still supported: precede URLs with "http:", "ftp:" or "mailto:" to create links automatically as in: http://c2.com/
• URLs ending with .png, .gif, or .jpg are inlined if in square brackets, by themselves:

HTML Mark-Up Language

• Don't bother
• < and > are themselves
• The & characters will not work
