Template:Resize/doc

	This is a documentation subpage for Template:Resize. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

It is to change the font size of a text string.

Syntax

• {{Resize|N|text}} — N specifies a size, such as "95%", "1.2em", etc.
• {{Resize|text}} — If N is omitted, as in the second line above, a default 90% size is applied.
• {{resize|div=yes|text}} — As above but uses a div tag instead of a span tag.

Beware

Beware that if text happens to contain an equality sign (=), it will fail to render properly. Here are the workarounds:

1. Replace all instances of {{{1}}} with {{=}}, or
2. Specify {{resize|N|2=text}} or {{resize|1=text}}.

Also it will fail to wrap multiple blocks, such as multiple paragraphs or multiple bullet points. Here are the workarounds:

1. Use, for example,
   <div style="font-size:90%;">
   ...multiple paragraphs...
   </div>, or
2. Apply this template separately to each block of paragraph, bullet point etc.
3. Use {{resize|div=yes}}.
