How can an editor add an HTML class to the whole box, or just the title? (like bodyclass or titleclass in {{ infobox}})? Andy Mabbett | Talk to Andy Mabbett 17:03, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
<div/>
or <table/>
tag, though it would probably have some very undesirable side effects. The most elegant way to do so would be to request a change on the (meta)template or to hardcode the box yourself. Adding a class to the title is very simple, just enclose it in a <span/>
tag - for example, <span class="yourclasshere">Your title here</span>

? Or should we also make groupclass
and listclass
? Or how about groupnclass
and listnclass
? I'm also concerned about template bloat, so the fewer the better. Let me know which ones are needed and I'll add them. --

I'm having problems with the spacing on {{ USHouseSpeaker}}. See:
This only happens when the title is linked. Otherwise, everything fits nicely.
There are some more Navboxes like this. See, for example, Category:United States House of Representatives navigational boxes.— Markles 18:17, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
It can also be fixed by removing the image:
So, it looks like it happens if you have a linked title and an image. --—— Gadget850 (Ed) talk - 15:26, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
Hello everybody. I'm from catalan wikipedia and we have a little problem when we want to change the title colour. As you can see here and here, the same navbox code gives different results and we don't know why (the navbox code is the same and our CSS code for navboxes is also the same). Thanks!! -- Schizodelight ( talk) 11:16, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
I've created this template:
This template contains a navbox with collapsible groups template (state=child) inside but this additional template doesn't allow me to have uncollapsed the main template if there is only this one in an article and collapsed if there are two or more navbox templates. How can I solve it? What should I write in "state" parameter? Thanks again.!-- Schizodelight ( talk) 13:38, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
|state = expanded
to the parent Navbox should work, i.e.{{Navbox |name=Espais naturals de Catalunya |state = expanded |title=[[Espais naturals de Catalunya]] ...etc.
Hi. Which of the following Navbox template formattings do you prefer, the first (A) or second (B)?
Thank you for your input.

Comment It might help if you spell out what the differences are and the pros/cons of the changes, so that each responder does not have to research your inquiry. In other words, what are you trying to prove? Rgrds. -- Tombstone ( talk) 11:40, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
Comment Before going any further, I will have to state that version B is technically not feasable because it requires coding that breaks other functions like subgroups and nested navboxes. See the discussion at MediaWiki talk:Common.css#Navbox padding and line spacing, where it is explained in more detail. — Edokter • Talk • 19:46, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
Technically infeasible - Sardanaphalus has been demanding this change for months now and we have repeatedly answered "no that will break things" and explained that "it will break the navbox subgroups, that is the navbox inside navbox functionality". The reason why his example above seems to work is that it is hard-coded and that it doesn't have any subgroups.
Sardanaphalus is wasting everybody's time with his demands. We have already told you repeatedly: NO we don't know how to solve it, and NO we are not going to spend time trying to solve it for you (we are not your paid employees), and NO we won't accept deploying a broken "solution". (And besides, I think your kind of padding and margins make the link lists harder to read.)
So as we have told you many times before: Sardanaphalus: Your only sane path of action is to code up the whole thing in your own user space and experiment and test it carefully to try to find something that works with your ideas. (But I think it will probably be hard to find such a solution.) Well, you have one other sane path of action, that is no action. Just drop the whole thing and go do something else, okay?
We have no reasons to answer any more questions from you. You have to stop pestering us with your demands and questions. Your refusal to stand down means you are wasting everybody's time and making people angry. And that is detrimental to Wikipedia.
(Anyone curious on the history of this can dig through the archives of this page and check the edit history for Sardanaphalus and see that he have brought up this question again and again on all kinds of talk pages, including putting demands on personal talk pages of those who have been involved in the coding of the navbox system.)
