Wiki Syntax Examples

One of the easiest ways to learn wiki syntax is to steal it from an existing page by pressing the 'edit' tab. If you want to demonstrate wiki syntax, enclose the text with the <pre> tag, for instance:

 
   <pre>
   Enclose a third level heading with three equal signs on each side,
   like this:
 
      === This is a Third Level Heading ===
   </pre>
 

Wiki Code Extension

This wiki has a Code Extension installed that provides syntax highlighting. To use, enclose your code within code tags with the appropriate GeSHi supported language specified. As this wiki is about WiX, an extension for language="wix" has been added. For example, the following wiki text:

  <code lang="wix">
  <?xml version='1.0'?>
  <Wix xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi'
     xmlns:util='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension'>     

    <Product Id='{EC411C25-89B7-4586-9BDA-48DA76A61FD9}' 
        Name='XmlConfig Problem' 
        Language='1033'
        Version='1.0.0' 
        Manufacturer='MindCapers' 
        UpgradeCode='{E8254079-0516-4b76-9ECB-4F88EA19D861}'>
        <Package Description='XmlConfig Problem'
            Comments='XmlConfig Problem'
            Manufacturer='MindCapers' InstallerVersion='200' Compressed='yes' />

    ...

    </Product>
                    
  </Wix>
  </code>

Will result in the following HTML text:

 
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<Wix xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi'
     xmlns:util='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension'>     
 
    <Product Id='{EC411C25-89B7-4586-9BDA-48DA76A61FD9}' 
        Name='XmlConfig Problem' 
        Language='1033'
        Version='1.0.0' 
        Manufacturer='MindCapers' 
        UpgradeCode='{E8254079-0516-4b76-9ECB-4F88EA19D861}'>
        <Package Description='XmlConfig Problem'
            Comments='XmlConfig Problem'
            Manufacturer='MindCapers' InstallerVersion='200' Compressed='yes' />
 
    ...
 
    </Product>
 
</Wix>
 

Hint: Use the pre and code tags to demonstrate the other!
