Module:HTMLParse/doc

Documentation

[purge]

This module parses and manipulates HTML strings.

There is currently 2 functions:

• pluralize
• make_possessive

pluralize

Pluralizes an HTML string by inserting an "s" between the final alphabetic character and closing tag </

For example, <span>book</span> becomes <span>books</span>.

Notes:

• Won't pluralize anything that already ends in "s".
• Won't pluralize anything that doesn't lua pattern match %a</
• If passing a template that uses a cargo query as the html parameter, be sure that the cargo query is marked with no html or this Module might not be able to expand the template correctly.

Usage

{{#invoke: HTMLParse | pluralize | html = (html string here) }}

Examples

wikitext	result
{{#invoke: HTMLParse | pluralize | html = {{Qud text|&Cultra-light &brobot| notxml }} }}	ultra-light robots
{{#invoke: HTMLParse | pluralize | html = <span style="color:red">big </span><span style="color:blue">book</span> }}	big books

make_possessive

Identical to pluralize except that instead of inserting an s, make_possessive inserts an 's
