This is perfect!!!! Thank you so much :-) Taking out the {{{ }}} was exactly the key to getting the text formatting working. I don't really understand the purpose of these braces or what they do however, they remind me of embedded velocity code!! Also the: {{code language="none"}} {{/code}} was the answer to getting the proper code formatting that I wanted. Best regards, Kaya On 24/08/2010 13:13, Alex Busenius wrote:

Hi,

{{{ ... }}} disables xwiki syntax inside. Try something like:

(% class="moz-text-plain" graphical-quote="true" lang="x-unicode" style="font-family: -moz-fixed; font-size: 13px;" wrap="true" %) ((( == First: ==

Boot from Linux CD;

<snip>

Press: Enter to activate;

then use these commands:

{{code language="none"}} mkdir /mnt/temp

mount /dev/hda2(in my case replace with whereever / is located) /mnt/temp

mount --bind /sys /mnt/temp/sys {{/code}}

<snip>

)))

without the {{{}}} around instead.

Hi,

I'm attempting to create a page containing unix code in order to document my work so that I and other people who need it can benefit.

The current content of the page created in the wiki editor is this:

(% class="moz-text-plain" graphical-quote="true" lang="x-unicode" style="font-family: -moz-fixed; font-size: 13px;" wrap="true" %) ((( {{{ First:

Boot from Linux CD;

When screen asks to boot press: Enter

Once kernel loaded and H/W detected and you get to first part of installer press Alt-F2 to get to console mode;

Press: Enter to activate;

then use these commands:

mkdir /mnt/temp

mount /dev/hda2(in my case replace with whereever / is located) /mnt/temp

mount --bind /sys /mnt/temp/sys

mount --bind /proc /mnt/temp/proc

mount --bind /dev /mnt/temp/dev

chroot /mnt/temp

~#grub

**Note** The above has been tested for Debian Etch and thus might be slightly different on other Linux distributions. However, the general principle remains the same.

An example for Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty and 9.10 Karmic:

mkdir /mnt/temp

mount /dev/hda2(in my case replace with whereever / is located) /mnt/temp

mount --bind /sys /mnt/temp/sys

mount --bind /proc /mnt/temp/proc

mount --bind /dev /mnt/temp/dev

chroot /mnt/temp

/usr/sbin/grub-install /dev/sda

}}} )))

The **Note** should show up in bold and be underlined however, even with the **bold** syntax it's not bolding and shows up in the wiki as **Note**??? The same thing happens if try to use the __underline__ syntax which is why I have removed it for now!

On top of that I would also like to know if like on many forums such as howtoforge or linuxquestions there is a mode to enter code which presents itself on screen as a box with different background often denominated by using:

[code] [/code]

to open and close the code input box....

Is something like this available in Xwiki??

Many thanks!
