Template:Texas counties/doc

The Template:Texas_counties links the county names in the U.S. state of Texas. The template was designed for 3 types of usage:
 * as the bottom nav-box on any county article;
 * as a stacked nav-box (with others), allowing the heading to be condensed by passing capital / flag_size parameters; or
 * as a stand-alone navigation page to select counties (as a short table box with little additional text outside the box).

Because of the 3 multiple uses, the template displays a simple navigation-box without displaying an extended description.

Usage
The template allows passing optional parameters:
 * { {Texas counties}}
 * { {Texas counties|capital= |flag_size=75x21px}}

Parameters
The template has optional parameters, intended to customize the heading, such as when stacked after other nav-boxes:


 * capital=name - when the name is blank, the line about the state capital is omitted from the nav-box heading (default: Springfield).
 * flag_size=75x21px - sets the size (width-x-height) of the flag image (upper-left corner) to shorten the title-box (default: 75x44px).

Parameters are passed as unquoted text, separated by vertical-bars ("|") also called pipe symbols.

Examples
Typically the template would be invoked by just the name: { {Texas counties}}, inserted near the bottom of an article. However, when used in tandem, following other nav-boxes, the heading can be reduced by adding extra parameters:
 * { {Texas counties|capital= |flag_size=75x21px}}

Those parameters cause the title-box to be smaller, omitting the line for the state capital (showing only "State of Texas counties").
