    Most unusual characters can be directly entered without any problems.

    If you do encounter problems, try using HTML character entities. A common example looks like &amp; for an ampersand & character. For a full list of entities see HTML's entities page. Some of the available characters include:

    Character Description	You Type	You Get
    Ampersand	&	&
    Greater than	>	>
    Less than	&lt;	<
    Quotation mark	&quot;	"

    You can link to internal content by using the title of a node. Use [[Node Title]] to link to the node with the corrseponding name. An alternate title can be specified like this: [[Node Title|Link title]]

    External links are detected automatically. So just type http://example.com for the link. If you want a different title, use the following syntax: [http://example.com some link title].

    You can use interwiki links. Type [[site:Page Title]] to link to a page on a different site. You can use the following interwiki links:

    • path: Local drupal path - mapped to /%s
    • gdo: groups.drupal.org - mapped to http://groups.drupal.org/freelinking/%s
    • wp: Wikipedia - mapped to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%s
  • Every instance heading tags will be modified to include an id attribute for anchor linking.

Accepts options for title, list style, minimum heading level, and maximum heading level as follows: <!--tableofcontents list: ol; title: Table of Contents; minlevel: 1; maxlevel: 3;-->. All arguments are optional and defaults are shown.
