Template:Collapsible list
Template documentation | This template uses Lua: |
This template produces a collapsible list. It is possible to set CSS styles for the "frame" (the <div>...</div> tags surrounding the list), for the list title, and for the list items. The template supports an unlimited number of list items.
This template is typically used in infoboxes and navboxes; it should not normally be used in regular article content, per MOS:DONTHIDE.
Regarding using this template in infoboxes, MOS:DONTHIDE acknowledges that "a few infoboxes also use pre-collapsed sections for infrequently accessed details. If [such] information ... seems extraneous or trivial enough to inspire pre-collapsing it, consider raising a discussion on the article (or template) talk page about whether it should be included at all."

| framestyle | Custom CSS styling applied the template overall (title and list). |
| titlestyle | Custom CSS styling applied to the title. |
| title | The list's title (always on view beside the list's [show/hide] link). |
| liststyle | Custom CSS styling applied to the list (specifically, to the <ul>...</ul> tags delimiting the list). |
| hlist | Include as |hlist=on, |hlist=true, etc to produce a horizontal rather than vertical list. |
| bullets | Include as |bullets=on, |bullets=true, etc to place a bullet point before each list item. |
| Unnamed parameters (first, second, third...) | The list items (in the order in which they will appear). If none are supplied, the template outputs nothing. |
