Usage
General usage layout is:
{{mbox
|type= [warning|caution|info|step|centos|ubuntu]
|msg= Text in this area will be used for a title message, font size is 20px
|text= Text in this area will be treated like normal wiki text (MOST normal formatting should work but will be contained inside the border, note | may not work properly).
This also allows for multiple lines.
|image= [image file name| none]
|caption= This will provide a small area for an image caption.
|version= Useful if you are specifying a specific version of an operating system, will display below the icon.
|style= Additional style information after the defaults are set. This should allow you to override the default settings.
|size= [normal|small|tiny]
}}
Example
{{mbox
|type=caution
|image=Centos_icon.png
|msg=Caution Message
|text=More information about the message
example formatting
|caption=CentOS5
|version=5.x
|style=border: 4px dotted green
}}
 5.x CentOS5
| Caution Message |
More information about the message
example formatting
Pipes in message box
| Pipes '|' in message boxes |
The template structure automatically will read |'s as being part of the template and will likely break the rest of the message.
To get around this there are a few things you can do.
- Use the template:! template if you need the | to display on the screen.
{{!}}
- Use HTML code if you are trying to create a table.
Nesting
 | The text field will allow for nesting of message boxes |
| This can make for some interesting message boxes |
