Block Attributes (Block Inline Attribute Lists) |
tags: block, ids, classes, styles
You can assign any attribute (e.g. id, class, style, etc.) to a block-level element. Just directly follow the block with a block inline attribute list (or short: block IAL). A block inline attribute list consists of a left curly brace, followed by a colon, the attribute definitions and a right curly brace. Here is a simple example which sets the title attribute of a block quote:
> A nice blockquote
{: title="Blockquote title"}
As one often wants to set one or more CSS classes on an element, there is an easy shortcut:
> A nice blockquote
{: .class1 .class2}
A shortcut for setting the ID is also provided. Just prefix the ID with a hash symbol:
> A nice blockquote
{: #with-an-id}
