TextFormattingRules

A wiki server formats your text as a web page according to some simple markup rules. These are intended to be convenient and unobtrusive, and should become second nature after a little practice.

ZWiki understands at least four main types of markup. StructuredText is used by default; if the site admin has enabled others, they will be listed as options on the edit form.

StructuredText (default)
  • separate paragraphs with a blank line
  • indent paragraphs to create headings
  • use ... and ... for emphasis
  • WikiName(s), bare urls and words enclosed in square brackets are hyperlinked; prepend a link or a line with ! to prevent this
  • HTML & DTML tags may be used
  • HTML
  • HTML tags required (eg you must separate paragraphs with a <p>)
  • WikiName(s), bare urls and words enclosed in square brackets are hyperlinked; prepend a link or a line with ! to prevent this
  • DTML tags may be used
  • Classic Wiki
  • similar to the WikiWikiWeb
  • separate paragraphs with a blank line
  • indent paragraphs to get fixed-width text
  • use ''...'' and '''...''' for emphasis I think
  • WikiName(s) and urls are hyperlinked
  • Plain Text
  • plain, fixed-width text with no surprises.
