Blocks with special formatting

You can use block formating to present text as a block with a specified formatting. For example, you can highlight syntax in the source code, add a fragment of boxed text, or set up the width and position of a block on your page.

Wiki also supports markup of mathematical formulas and special languages for visualizing diagrams.

To add a special formatting block to a page created in the old editor, use the following markup:

%%(<format> <parameters>)
A text fragment, software code, or data markup in a specified format
%%

For example:

%%(php width=300 border="2px solid red")
<?
phpinfo();
$s = "Hello, World!\n";
print $s;
%%

The list of available parameters depends on the selected block format.

These parameters are supported for all formats: wrapper, align, width, and border. For parameter descriptions, see Borders, width, and alignment of blocks.
