The two markups >><< and (:div:) have different logic. The thing inside >>...<< or in %...% is a "WikiStyle", a predefined set of keywords and combinations; those within (:div...:), (:table...:) or (:cell:) are raw HTML attributes which are displayed as-is in the produced HTML. For wiki authors without much HTML/CSS knowledge, WikiStyles are probably very easy to understand and to get working. (PmWikiPhilosophy #1 and #2.) WikiStyles are not always exact CSS styles or classes, and for very experienced hardcore HTML/CSS experts, they might appear unusual at the beginning. But I feel there should be no problem for *experts* to understand and use a new tool, slightly different from the one they knew before. :-) In the past, there was a confusion in the documentation about "WikiStyle" vs. "HTML Attribute". I tried to explain it better, but if you can improve it, please edit the page: http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/WikiStyles Thanks, Petko _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
