Template:Dialog/incoming untouched/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Dialog/incoming untouched (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This is a dialog formatting template. It is meant for use on interactive dialog pages, and may involve interactions between wiki markup, html, and javascript. Please carefully test any edits before making them. |
Usage
editPlacing this template on a dialog page indicates — when viewing the dialog page via dialog action do verb view — that the unprocessed incoming dialog parameter name-value pairs should be placed on the page at the position of each call to this template. Making this information available for inspection is sometimes essential for the user to understand how a dialog is evolving, and whether it is evolving as it should.
Internals
editThe view verb of action do processes calls to this template — and {{dialog/incoming localized}} and {{dialog/notes}} — after all other processing has been completed; so this information is not available as template parameters or even as dialog field values. This timing prevents the inspection feature from affecting dialog behavior.
