HTML Tags extension for MediaWiki.

This extension defines a tag function, <htmltag>, that allows users to place HTML tags on the page that may not be otherwise allowed by the MediaWiki parser.

For more information, see the extension homepage at: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:HTML_Tags

Overview

<htmltag> can only display tags and attributes that are allowed for that wiki. Tags and attributes are allowed through the use of the global variable $wgHTMLTagsAttributes in LocalSetting.php. To allow the use of the <a> tag, for instance, with the attributes 'href' and 'class', you would add the following to LocalSettings.php:

$wgHTMLTagsAttributes['a'] = array( 'href', 'class' );

A user could then display an <a> tag on the wiki, with those attributes, with text like the following:

<htmltag tagname="a" href="http://example.com" class="link">See here</htmltag>

Calling <htmltag> with a tag name that is not allowed will result in an error message; calling it with an attribute that is not allowed will simply lead to the attribute being ignored.
