Template:Float/doc

Ginen Wikipedia
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Float (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Use {{float}} to "float" itemsTemplate:Spaced ndashi.e. position themTemplate:Spaced ndashso they do not affect the alignment or formatting of other items (such as text) nearby.

|Template:Bigger is the only required parameter. The optional parameters top, right, bottom and left indicate how far from their respective positions the item is to be positioned. The width of the item may also be specified. Any established HTML/CSS units may be used so long as they are specified (for example, {{float |top=2.0em |left=2px |width=10em |Blah}}).

Examples[edit source]
