{{redirect|Template:Inline list|a navbox listing templates used within lines of text to mark problems needing attention|Template:Inline cleanup tags}}
{{TOClimit|3}}
This template provides a [[Web Content Accessibility Guidelines|WCAG]]/ISO-standards-compliant accessible alternative to comma- or dash- (or other single character-) separated lists, per [[WP:FLATLIST]] and [[WP:HLIST]].
==Usage==
{{tl|flatlist}} starts a horizontal list, such as:
{{flatlist|
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
}}
This template can be used with or without {{tl|endflatlist}}. For navigation boxes using {{tl|navbox}}, one can set {{para|listclass|hlist}}, and achieve the same styling without using this template. For image captions, list (i.e. asterisk) markup does not work, so consider using {{tl|hlist}} instead.
==Examples==
<pre>
{{flatlist|
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
}}
</pre>
produces:
{{flatlist|
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
}}
===Alternative syntax===
<pre>
{{startflatlist}}
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
{{endflatlist}}
</pre>
produces:
{{startflatlist}}
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
{{endflatlist}}
===Syntax for ordered lists===
<pre>
{{flatlist|
# [[first]]
# [[second]]
# [[third]]
# [[fourth]]
# [[fifth]]
# [[sixth]]
}}
</pre>
produces:
{{flatlist|
# [[first]]
# [[second]]
# [[third]]
# [[fourth]]
# [[fifth]]
# [[sixth]]
}}
==Parameters==
* '''''class''''' adds a CSS class to the containing div. Use <tt>nowraplinks</tt> to prevent links from wrapping.
* '''''style''''' adds CSS styling to the containing div. Complex styles should not be used in articles (per [[WP:Deviations]]) but may be acceptable on user, project and talk pages.
::Example: {{para|<var>style</var>|<var>border:solid 1px silver; background:lightyellow</var>}}
* '''''indent''''' indents the list by a number of standard indents, one indent being 1.6[[Em (typography)|em]]. (Useful in an indented discussion thread.)
::Example: {{para|<var>indent</var>|<var>2</var>}}
==Technical details==
This template uses the <code>.hlist</code> CSS class defined in Common.css to generate horizontal lists. It causes ordinary html list items to be displayed inline (horizontally), where they would normally display as block elements (vertically). The class also generates the [[interpunct]]s between list items and parentheses around nested lists. Some of the CSS used is not compatible with all browsers, notably Internet Explorer 6 and 7.

* {{tl|flt}} and {{tl|flb}}
==See also==

* {{tl|plainlist}} and {{tl|unbulleted list}}
