Two Modes: page / edit

In page mode, you see what a visitor sees. In edit mode you see the page with formatting codes.

• Please enter edit mode by changing tabs from "page" to "edit" above (next to the picture, at the top). You may look at history too, but, to understand the next part you must be in Edit mode!

Under the title of the page Sandbox (bac à sable) you should see 11 buttons.

• B = bold (French gras)
• I = italic

• A = an automatic heading: not very useful if you master the = sign (see below)
• picture = to add a file (may not work yet)
• trumpet = media file (may not work yet)
• square root of n: math (formulae, special symbols)
• For non-formatted text
• (signature) Here's mine: --Mr. Shimanek 16:59, 30 March 2015 (CEST)

Feel free to play, don't worry if you make a mistake. You can't break the wiki. Well, ok, maybe you can break it if you really try, but don't try, ok? ^^

You can type here:

using HTML

• <p> = opening tag for a paragraph, </p> = closing tag for a paragraph
• <span> = opening tag for a chunk of text, </span> = closing tag for a chunk of text
• <span style="color:darkgreen;"> = opening tag to color a chunk of text green, </span> = closing tag for the chunk of green text

• <br /> = opening and closing tag for a line break.

Example: this is a very short paragraph
. . . . . . . . . .
with two line breaks and ten pink dots

using wiki syntax

The equal (=) sign

equal = 'i: kwal equality = i: 'kwalɪti

1. To make a numbered list...
2. Use # at the beginning of the line.
   1. To add a layer, use two!
   2. You can even do it twice.
      1. or even three times
3. That's how you make a numbered list.

• To make a "bullet" list..
• Use an asterisk (*) at the beginning of the line.
  • To add a layer, use two!
    • or three.
• Pretty simple, huh?
