===Parameters===
* '''class''' – adds a CSS class to the containing div. Use <tt>nowraplinks</tt> to prevent links from wrapping.
* '''style''' – adds CSS style options. Complex styles should not be used in articles (per [[wp:deviations]]) but may be acceptable on user, project, and talk pages.
::Example: {{para|<var>style</var>|<var>border:solid 1px silver; background:lightyellow</var>}}
* '''indent''' – indents the list by a number of standard indents (one indent being 1.6em), particularly handy for inclusion in an indented discussion thread.
::Example: {{para|<var>indent</var>|<var>2</var>}}

Usage

{{Flatlist}} starts a horizontal list, such as:

  • cat
  • dog
  • horse
  • cow
  • sheep
  • pig

The bottom margin is inherited from the current container. Normally this will be 0.5em.

For navigation boxes using {{navbox}}, one can set |listclass=hlist, and achieve the same styling without using this template.

For image captions, * markup does not work, so consider using {{hlist}} instead.

Examples

{{flatlist|
* cat
* dog
* horse
* cow
* sheep
* pig
}}
  • cat
  • dog
  • horse
  • cow
  • sheep
  • pig
Alternative syntax
{{flatlist}}
* cat
* dog
* horse
* cow
* sheep
* pig
{{endflatlist}}
  • cat
  • dog
  • horse
  • cow
  • sheep
  • pig
Syntax for ordered lists
{{flatlist|
# first
# second
# third
# fourth
# fifth
# sixth
}}
  1. first
  2. second
  3. third
  4. fourth
  5. fifth
  6. sixth

Technical details

This template uses the .hlist CSS class defined in Common.css to generate horizontal lists. It causes ordinary html list items to be displayed inline (horizontally), where they would normally display as block elements (vertically). The class also generates the interpuncts between list items and parentheses around nested lists. Some of the CSS used is not compatible with all browsers, notably Internet Explorer 6 and 7. In these cases, JavaScript in Common.js generates the interpuncts and parentheses.
