Embed inside another Infobox

вироиш

The hiking trail Infobox can be embedded inside another Infobox for seamless display of info. For example, a hiking trail that is also a protected area, such as the Kal-Haven Trail. See the testcases for more examples.

Inserting the hiking Infobox inside the parent Infobox

вироиш

The hiking Infobox can only be inserted after certain field values of the parent template. Specifically, only after fields whose values are not passed to another template by the parent templates source code. In other words, the parent templates source code for the field has to output the fields' value without passing it to a template. This may require examining the parent templates source code. It is ok to insert after field values that contain internal [[]] and external links [].
Example:

{| style="float:right; clear:right; border:0; margin:-0.5em 0 0 0;"
|-
|{{Infobox Protected area
| name = Kal-Haven Trail
...
| governing_body = <div>[[Michigan Department of Natural Resources]]</div>
{{Infobox hiking trail
  | embed = yes
  | cellstyle = padding:0.1em 0.3em;
  | name = Kal-Haven Trail
  | length = {{convert|34.5|mi|km|1}}
...
  }}
}}
|}

Note the &lt;div&gt; tag surrounding the governing_body wiki link. It is needed to reduce the vertical spacing between the governing_body field and the first hiking trail field, in this case, length.

Parent Infobox encapsulation

вироиш

The parent Infobox needs to be encapsulated in a table as in the above example.

{| style="float:right; clear:right; border:0; margin:-0.5em 0 0 0;"
|-
|(parent Infobox)
|}

Parameters

Field name Description
embed Set to embed = yes when embedding inside another Infobox.

cellstyle = padding:0.1em 0.3em;
title A first colored header before the main infobox, used when embedded, to show the trail name
