Creating & Linking Pages
The one advantage a wiki engine has over conventional html is the author does not need to know the html syntax required to link pages together.ie <a href="www.turland.net" >text</a>
A wiki provides simplified markup to perform all its tasks. The markup required to link pages in WikiD-X is to surround the page name with double square brackets, ie [[mypage]]. This would link to a page called mypage. If the page exists a link to it is formed.
If the page does not exist a ? (question mark) is appended to the page name, providing a link which will allow you to create the new page.
Changing link text
The text for the link can be changed by adding free-form text to the link[[mypage link to my page]] would generate text of 'link to my page' which links to page mypage.
Image Links
By substituting the free-form text with a link to an image, the link will become a picture link.[[homepage img/smileys/sheep.gif]] -
External resource links
Linking to external resource follows the same rules for creating internal links. Surround the http call with double brackets, for example[[http://www.google.com]] - www.google.com
Additional advanced linking markup is provided to allow pages to be grouped.
