[edit]Well done. I had a look at your template code, and it's beyond me!
- It's actually remarkably simple. You just replace any instance of a piece of data with either a variable, or the result of another template being fed the appropriate variables. So the first unnamed variable - {{{1}}} - is simply displayed in upper case {{uc: {{{1}}} }} for the third column, but is ran through a hex to decimal template
{{hex2dec|{{{1}}} }}for the second column. For the second character, you do the same with {{{2}}}. The complexity is really just a function of what you want to do with your inputs. I manage to run the Unicode code point inputs through the template{{UTF-8}}for both decimal and hex output. Basically, that's everything, with a bit of arcana, like you can't directly use pipe characters "|" inside of #if: conditions, so you use{{!}}. VanIsaacWScontribs 01:02, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
You have a bug somewhere that's including extra spaces and throwing things out. You didn't use the same template call layout in your demonstration as in your documentation! Compare the following:
- template call formatted as actually used in the documentation
- template call formatted as shown in the documentation
User:Vanisaac/charmap wrong: character display, decimal Unicode value, UTF-8 strings
- After fixing the space bug, compare this with Yer#Computing_codes
- Some suggestions for improvement
- I would prefer capital hex letters in the numeric character references
- I would like to see the named character references centred in the spanned column
Thanks for the hard work.
