7. Images
To place images on a Wiki page, use:
{{image class="center" alt="DVD logo" title="An Image Link" url="images/dvdvideo.gif" link="RecentChanges"}}
Links can be external, or internal Wiki links. You don't have to enter a link at all, and in that case just an image will be inserted. You can also use the classes 'left' and 'right' to float images left and right. You don't need to use all those attributes, only url is essential.
8. Links
To link to other wiki pages, write
- a WikiName
- or a forced link with [[ and ]] around it (everything after the first space will be shown as description)
- Example: [[JennaPage Jenna's Home Page]]
- or an image with a link
To link to external pages, write
- a http address inside the page
- or a forced link with [[ and ]] around it (everything after the first space will be shown as description)
- Example: [[http://example.com/jenna/ Jenna's Home Page]]
- or an image with a link
- Examples:
- WikiPedia:WikkaWiki
9. Tables
To create a table use this code:
{{table columns="3" cellpadding="1" cells="BIG;GREEN;FROGS;yes;yes;no;no;no;###"}} to give:
| BIG | GREEN | FROGS |
| yes | yes | no |
| no | no |
### means the cell is empty.
10. Colored Text
{{color c="blue" text="This is a test."}} gives:
This is a test.
If you want to use hex values:
{{color hex="#DD0000" text="This is another test."}} to give:
This is another test.

No special formatting is necessary.
Option 2: Paste the FreeMind data directly into a wikka page:

14. Embedded HTML
Use two doublequotes around the html tags.""

By default, some HTML tags are removed by the SafeHTML parser to protect against potentially dangerous code. The list of tags that are removed can be found on the Wikka:SafeHTML page.
It is possible to allow all HTML tags to be used, see Wikka:UsingHTML for more information.
