FooterRenderer inserts the contents of the metadata variable 'footer' at the end of the document OR in front of a close-HTML tag, whichever comes first.
HeaderRenderer inserts the contents of the metadata variable 'header' at the end of the document OR following an open-HTML tag.
An add-on that converts blocks delimited with <tabs></tabs> and separated with tabs into an html table. Example:
<tabs> a b c d bigger table cell f </tabs>
becomes:
| a | b | c |
|---|---|---|
| d | bigger table cell | f |
Is responsible for the overall structure of a page. It has a standard HTML header and footer (ie, html, head, and body tags), as well as some extra structure to the page like presenting the title and subtitle as an H1 and creating a top and bottom navbar. There are a lot of metadata variables available for customizing this renderer, see features for more details.
Expands metadata variable references of the form #{varname} into the value associated to varname.
Converts HREF urls to relative urls. Nice if you are not renderering the entire site.
Evaluates blocks that are preceded with "!" characters and shows the code and the result together. NOTE: this feature is really weak and will require an overhaul to irb (read: not my code) to work properly.
Renders sitemaps into lists of links.
A composite of a bunch of renderers. Provides a fairly standard feature-set.
Adds links to sub-pages (pages below the current page in the site-map heirarchy).
Does a bizillion conversions from plain text to HTML. See Text-To-HTML for a full description.
Generates and inserts a table-of-contents at the beginning of the documents. It is generated from the plain-text header (eg "**") entries.
There are three other renderers not listed here, CompositeRenderer, GenericRenderer, and HtmlRenderer. These are abstract classes and are only of interest to you if you are customizing ZenWeb.
