Revision as of 01:15, 27 November 2011

These are a series of tests of combining the <nowiki> and <pre> tags. This is motivated by the results seen after a migration utility was used on pages encoded in another wiki syntax for use in a replacement MediaWiki. The most important question is, is there a reason to use both of these tags together? If so, what is the effect of various nestings of the two tags?

Using only one tag

Placing all the tokens on one line in the source

No leading or trailing white space

<nowiki></nowiki> alone

Source:
<nowiki>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</nowiki>
Display:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

<pre></pre> alone

Source:
<pre>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</pre>
Display:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Leading and trailing white space

<nowiki></nowiki> alone

Source:
<nowiki> Lorem  ipsum  dolor  sit  amet,  consectetur  adipiscing  elit. </nowiki>
Display:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Note: minimum white space is used in the result.

<pre></pre> alone

Source:
<pre> Lorem  ipsum  dolor  sit  amet,  consectetur  adipiscing  elit. </pre>
Display:

 Lorem  ipsum  dolor  sit  amet,  consectetur  adipiscing  elit.

Note: white space is preserved in the result

Placing each token on a separate line in the source

No leading or trailing white space

<nowiki></nowiki> alone

<nowiki>
Lorem
ipsum
dolor
sit
amet,
consectetur
adipiscing
elit.
</nowiki>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Please note the result is the same as placing all the tokens on one line in the source.

<pre></pre> alone

<pre>
Lorem
ipsum
dolor
sit
amet,
consectetur
adipiscing
elit. 



Lorem
ipsum
dolor
sit
amet,
consectetur
adipiscing
elit.

Please note each token between the tags is placed on a separate line.

Leading and trailing white space

<nowiki></nowiki> alone

<nowiki>


 Lorem 
 ipsum 
 dolor 
 sit 
 amet, 
 consectetur 
 adipiscing 
 elit. 


</nowiki>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Please note the result is the same as placing all the tokens on one line in the source.

<pre></pre> alone

<pre>


 Lorem 
 ipsum 
 dolor 
 sit 
 amet, 
 consectetur 
 adipiscing 
 elit.  



 Lorem 
 ipsum 
 dolor 
 sit 
 amet, 
 consectetur 
 adipiscing 
 elit.

Please note each token between the tags is placed on a separate line with, at least, leading white space, including vertical white space.

Using both tags

Placing all the tokens on one line in the source

No leading or trailing white space

<nowiki> first, then <pre>

<pre>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</pre>

<pre> first, then <nowiki>

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Leading and trailing white space

<nowiki> first, then <pre>

<pre> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. </pre>

<pre> first, then <nowiki>

 Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Placing each token on a separate line in the source

No leading or trailing white space

<nowiki> first, then <pre>

<pre> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. </pre>

<pre> first, then <nowiki>

Please note the additional vertical spacing in the result. 


Lorem
ipsum
dolor
sit
amet,
consectetur
adipiscing
elit.

Leading and trailing white space

<nowiki> first, then <pre>

<pre> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. </pre>

<pre> first, then <nowiki>

Please note the additional vertical spacing in the result. 


 Lorem 
 ipsum 
 dolor 
 sit 
 amet, 
 consectetur 
 adipiscing 
 elit.
