Template:Block center/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Block center It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage[edit source]
This template places a block of text in the center of the page, without affecting the text alignment within that block.
- Comparison of {{Block center}} and {{Center}}
This template retains the current text alignment (usually left), but moves the entire block of text into the center. To change to centred text alignment, use {{Center}} instead.

Parameters[edit source]
title[edit source]
Where there is a need to give the title of the work, an optional "title" parameter can be used. Sometimes this is will center the title better than a stand-alone line will; other times not - it usually depends on if a fixed width (next example) is forced or not.
{{block center|title=LOREM IPSUM|Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.<br/>
Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor.
Aenean massa.}}
|
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean massa. |
width[edit source]
Where there is a requirement to fix the width of the block, an optional "width" parameter can be used. Sometimes this is required to force a wider width when line wrap occurs.
{{block center|width=300px|Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.<br/>
Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor.
Aenean massa.}}
|
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean massa. |
style[edit source]
Where there is a need to specify the style of the text, an optional "style" parameter can be used. This parameter takes the same style attributes that can be set for any table.
{{block center|style=font-style:italic|<poem>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
consectetuer adipiscing elit.
Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor;
Aenean massa.
</poem>}}

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, |
