[Maria-docs] Please use "syntax, example, text, standards conformity" as format for reference manual type of pages

Hi Daniel I was reading http://kb.askmonty.org/v/virtual-columns ...compare the ordering of the storyline to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/create-table.html The one from MySQL manual works great for me: syntax first (this is what I most commonly need) basic example(s) second (usually need this too for complex syntax) more indepth text, exceptions, etc... come third Also, I propose we adopt the practice from the PostgreSQL manual of always including last a section on which standards the feature conforms to (or if it is MySQL specific, or MariaDB specific feature, state that). Just some tips from an avid reader! henrik -- henrik.ingo(a)avoinelama.fi +358-40-5697354 www.openlife.cc

[Maria-docs] Any way to do HTML markup?
by Sergey Petrunya 04 Oct '10

04 Oct '10

Hello, I'd like knowledge base to support HTML to the same extent like the old wiki did. Right now, it doesn't seem to support it, so instead of nice tables like this: http://askmonty.org/wiki/Manual:Batched_Key_Access, I have to live with poor tables like here: http://kb.askmonty.org/v/mariadb-53-documentation#batched-key-access-improv… which look much worse. Is it possible to support a subset of HTML? Thanks, Sergey -- Sergey Petrunia, Software Developer Monty Program AB, http://askmonty.org Blog: http://s.petrunia.net/blog

[Maria-docs] Any way to use "code" words in the text?
by Sergey Petrunya 04 Oct '10

04 Oct '10

Hi, In the days of MySQL Manual, it used to be possible to specify individual words in the text to be code. That was very useful to highlight SQL terms, exact phrases from EXPLAIN output, and so forth. For example, search for "Using Index" on this page: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/index-merge-optimization.html Is it possible to get this feature in the KB?
