The parser function #info allows to add tooltips containing additional information or warnings.
Syntax
{{#info: ''<text>'' | ''<icon>'' }}
Parameters
Text
The first parameter displays the text in the #info bubble and should only contain inline HTML elements. No paragraphs, tables, lists or any other block elements are allowed. One should also avoid using empty lines (because empty line will terminate one paragraph and start another one) and equal signs (see the tips section). Refraining from those guidelines could lead to incorrect HTML code and rendering (e. g. part of text after empty line could be rendered in the page, not in the bubble).
Icon
In case a second parameter is passed onto to #info, it will influences the display of the icon. If an incorrect parameter is used then the parameter will be silently ignored, and the default info icon will be displayed instead.
Allowed values are:
| Icon | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
info |
A blue icon with question mark; default | info.pngtest |
warning |
A yellow icon with exclamation mark. | warning.pngtest |
CSS settings
Change display text CSS settings
// Change #info font text size .smwtt {font-size: 0.5em;}

| 2011-02-29{{#info:Incorrect date.|warning}} | 2011-02-29warning.pngIncorrect date. | In Semantic MediaWiki prior to v1.6 the second argument is ignored, "info" icon is used unconditionally. |
