Add HTML to a page

Plugin HTML

This wiki plugin allows you to add any HTML (including scripts and objects) to a wiki page. This plugin was introduced in Tiki3.

 Note
Because users could potentially add unsafe scripts to a page, this plugin must be validated by a trusted contributor before becoming "live" on the page.

Parameters

Introduced in Tiki 3.
Preferences required: wikiplugin_html
Parameters Accepted Values Description Default Since
(body of plugin) HTML code
tohead (blank)
0
1
Insert the code in the HTML head section rather than in the body. 0 17.0
wiki (blank)
0
1
Parse wiki syntax within the HTML code. 0 3.0

Examples

Basic syntax

{HTML()}
You can use <b>HTML here</b> including JavaScript, etc. 
This is unsafe and thus, must be validated by a trusted editor
{HTML}

Example 1

You could paste the code you get for a Google Gadget, a PayPal button, etc.

For example, using this code:

Adding an HTML Iframe into a wiki page.
{HTML()}<iframe src="//www.slideshare.net/slideshow/embed_code/1106826" width="425" height="355" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" style="border:1px solid #CCC; border-width:1px; margin-bottom:5px; max-width: 100%;" allowfullscreen> </iframe> <div style="margin-bottom:5px"> <strong> <a href="//www.slideshare.net/RegisBarondeau/tikifest-montreal-mars-2009-fr" title="TikiFest Montreal Mars 2009 fr." target="_blank">TikiFest Montreal Mars 2009 fr.</a> </strong> from <strong><a href="//www.slideshare.net/RegisBarondeau" target="_blank">Régis Barondeau</a></strong> </div>{HTML}


Will produce this presentation embedded in the page:

Example 2

Embedding some html object from a site serving embeddable videos (youtube, vimeo, etc):

{CENTER()}{HTML()}<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/U_CDQZLmYts&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/U_CDQZLmYts&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>{HTML}{CENTER}


However the plugin call was not validated by the admins but denied, and this is what it would produce:

Plugin execution was denied

After argument validation by an editor, the execution of this plugin was denied. This plugin will eventually be removed or corrected.

Example 3

Making a wiki link to look like a button of the same theme style that you are using. For instance, this code:

^{HTML()}<span class="button"><a href="tiki-index.php?page=PluginHTML&itemId#Example_3">Save changes</a></span> with my custom buttom to the page PluginHTML, while you send also itemId in the url for PluginTrackerList magic, for instance (not used in this simple example){HTML}^


Would produce:

Save changes with my custom buttom to the page PluginHTML, while you send also itemId in the url for PluginTrackerList magic, for instance (not used in this simple example)

Alternatives

There are others ways to include HTML in a page:

  • Use the WYSIWYG editor. Note that Tiki will automatically filter potentially unsafe content.
  • Enable the Allow HTML in Wiki Pages option. Note that Tiki will automatically filter potentially unsafe content.
  • Use HTML Pages instead of wiki pages. Note that HTML pages do not include page version history.
  • Use PluginJS to include JavaScript in a wiki page.
