Synopsis

Common behaviour and list of (error) messages that might occur

Description

Tag extensions, like FlexForm, cannot hold any html in its arguments.

<_input type="text" value="hello<br>how are you" />

The above example will simply not be rendered. This is how MediaWiki tags work. You can use the following syntax, it at least will not break. It is another way of writing tag code.

{{#tag:_input||type=text|value=hello<br>how are you}}

The HTML will be filtered out.

Here's a list of common error messages that might occur, with a brief description of what the problem might be.

Can not find template	_email	shown when the page mentioned in the template cannot be read or parse by the API	check page name if it exists or not miss-spelled

Secure fields not complete	_form	shown when the sec option is set to true and files with type is secure (not to be manipulated with) are incomplete after a form submit
