साँचा:tl is an abbreviation template. It works similarly to the HTML <abbr> or <acronym> tags.
Usage
{{abbr}} takes two unnamed parameters, in order:
- The short form, which shows as text on the page
- The long form, which the short form is an abbreviation for
Many web browsers (such as Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari) show the long form as a tooltip when a user hovers over the text. However, this behavior is not guaranteed and should not be relied on.
There is an option for a third parameter: adding "unicode" (or "u") applies साँचा:tl to the text of parameter 1. This may resolve rendering issues with browsers which do not apply the proper font to the text. Other fonts/languages may be added to the code as needed. If the third parameter is not defined, it will be ignored.
The template also has two named parameters:
|class=|id=
which create the corresponding HTML attributes on the abbr element.
The former can be used in microformats.
Examples
With two parameters
{{abbr|MSLP|Mean Sea Level Pressure}}
appears as साँचा:abbr. When hovering over the text, something like Mean Sea Level Pressure appears as a tooltip in many (but not all) browsers. Popular screen readers, used by visually impaired readers, display the long form in a different way.
With three parameters
{{abbr|pȅći • пе̏ћи|to say|unicode}}
appears as साँचा:abbr. Compare साँचा:abbr without the Unicode formatting.
With named parameters
{{abbr|UK|United Kingdom|class=country-name|id=foobar}}appears as साँचा:abbr.
