The box itself is floating div, which (like images) can appear on the right or left or across the entire page. Article text will wrap around the div in the first two cases. This is useful in articles that are short on images and need some graphic-like element, or where an important or interesting quote wants to be presented in a way that sets it off from the surrounding text. '''Caution:''' this is a div-based template, and may break if indented using wikitext syntax. This is a current limitation of the wikipedia HTML parsing software. === Parameters === '''Basic parameters''' * title = Optional title to appear at the top of the quote box * quote = The quote or text to be displayed in the box * source = Optional source of the quote (author, publication, etc.) '''Main box styling''' * align - Alignment of the quote box on the page - left/right/center/none. Defaults to right alignment. * width - The width of the quote box. Defaults to the width of the quote included. * border - The width of the quote box border. Defaults to 1px. Remember to include 'px' or 'em' to specify the correct width. * fontsize - The fontsize of the quote box text. Defaults to 88%. * bgcolor - The RGB background color of the box. Defaults to #F9F9F9 (light gray) * style - A generic CSS style parameter. Entries in this parameter supersede any duplicates in the preceding parameters '''Title styling''' * title_bg - The RGB background color of the title. Defaults to #F9F9F9 (light gray) * title_fnt - The title font color. Defaults to black * tstyle - A generic CSS style parameter. Entries in this parameter supersede any duplicates in the preceding title parameters '''Quote styling''' * qalign - Alignment of the quote element - left/right/center. Defaults to left * qstyle - A generic CSS style parameter. Entries in this parameter supersede any duplicates in the preceding quote parameters * quoted - If this parameter evaluates to true (is not 0, false, or empty) the quote box will enclose the quote in ''fat-quotes''. Use judiciously, and read the [[w:MOS|Manual of Style]]. '''Source styling''' * salign - Alignment of the source element - left/right/center. Defaults to the value of qalign. * sstyle - A generic CSS style parameter. Entries in this parameter supersede any duplicates in the preceding source parameters === Full syntax === <PRE> {{Quote box |title = |quote = |source = |align = |width = |border = |fontsize = |bgcolor = |style = |title_bg = |title_fnt = |tstyle = |qalign = |qstyle = |quoted = |salign = |sstyle = }} </PRE> ===Examples=== Various example codes and their results.
