[edit] Family Trees
I used Template:Familytree to build the template for the Template:Henry Ford family tree if you go there you can see the actual markup (code). There is a pretty good description of how to use this template at Template talk:Familytree. It depends on how much you know about template syntax if its easy or hard to explain though I will give it a try.
Basically, the template creates a table, and each use of the template is one row in the table. For example:
{{familytree | | | | GRM |~|y|~| GRP | | GRM=Grandma|GRP=Grandpa}}
will be rendered:
|
|
|
|
Grandma |
|
|
|
Grandpa |
|
|||||||||||||||||
|
|
|
|
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
The template has two suptemplates {{familytree/start}} and {{familytree/end}} which are actually just the start and end of a the talbe tags (and a place where you can put any special styles on them like {{familytree/start|style=font-size:50%%;}} if you want the font smaller or want diffrent colors or whatever. How it works is that each space between the | | ends up being one cell in the final tree. The template reconizes some special characters and replaces them with the correct images (This is how the Chess psotion and Game of Go position templates work as well)). There is a good section explainning this a lot better than I am doing at Template talk:Familytree. The ony major diffrence with the chess template is that this one has an extra layer of substitution. The boxes with the members of the tree in them are three cells wide but some peopls names are more than 5 characters long (3 because three spaces and two |'s). As such, you have to creat an abbriviation of the peopls names then at the end of the same row put that abriviation and = and then the info to put in the box. I like to do it with 5 letters for the abbriv. even though the example above uses 3 and two spaces. Remember that multiple people on the same line have to be seperated by a | at the end. You should go to the talk page and read the help there though. Dalf | Talk 04:22, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
