This template can be used to quickly create a userbox for display on a user's "user" page. without having to know HTML or Wikitable syntax.

Usage

{{userbox
| bodyclass     = <!--Adds an HTML class attribute to the entire template's HTML table, to allow for styling, emission of microformats, etc.-->
| border-c      = <!--border color (default=id-c or #999999)-->
| border-s      = <!--border width in pixels (default=1)-->
| float         = <!--left|right|none (default=left)-->
| id            = <!--id image or text (image size should normally not exceed 90x45px)-->
| id-a          = <!--id horizontal alignment left/center/right/justify (default=center)-->
| id-c          = <!--id background color (default=#DDDDDD)-->
| id-fc         = <!--id font color (default=info-fc or black)-->
| id-h          = <!--id box height in pixels (default=45)-->
| id-lh         = <!--id line height (default=1.25em)-->
| id-op         = <!--id other CSS parameters-->
| id-p          = <!--id cell padding (default=0 1px 0 0)-->
| id-s          = <!--id text size in points (default=14)-->
| id-w          = <!--id box width in pixels (default=45)-->
| info-class    = <!--Adds an HTML class attribute to the "info" HTML table-row, to allow for styling, emission of microformats, etc.-->
| info          = <!--info text or image-->
| info-a        = <!--info horizontal alignment left/center/right/justify (default=left)-->
| info-c        = <!--info background color (default=#EEEEEE)-->
| info-fc       = <!--info font color (default=black)-->
| info-lh       = <!--info line height (default=1.25em)-->
| info-op       = <!--info other CSS parameters-->
| info-p        = <!--info padding (default=0 4px 0 4px)-->
| info-s        = <!--info text size in points (default=8)-->
| nocat         = <!--block page category declarations; see [[WP:NOCAT]] (default=false)-->
| usercategory  = <!--user category (optional, unlinked and without the "Category:" part)-->
| usercategory2 = <!--user category (optional)-->
| usercategory3 = <!--user category (optional)-->
| usercategory4 = <!--user category (optional)-->
| usercategory5 = <!--user category (optional)-->
}}

• All parameters are optional.
• Images should normally be scaled to x45px or less.

Most HTML-based tables use only a handful of these attributes. The following subset can be used to quickly convert an HTML userbox into the format used here:

{{userbox
| border-c = 
| id       = 
| id-c     = 
| id-fc    = 
| id-s     = 
| info     = 
| info-c   = 
| info-fc  = 
| info-lh  = 
| info-s   = 
}}

Examples

Code	Result
{{userbox | border-c = #aaffaa | border-s = 2 | id = foo | id-c = #ffffee | id-s = 20 | info = ''foo bar'' | info-c = #ffeeff | info-s = 12 }}	foofoo bar
Below example shows the default appearance of a userbox, which is (much) higher than the 45px. Compare the height of the one below with the above userbox.
{{userbox | border-c = #aaffaa | border-s = 2 | id = foo logo | id-c = #ffffee | info = ''We are trying to see default distance in between text lines, see the distance in between cell content and its border, and also see total height.'' | info-c = #ffeeff }}	foo logoWe are trying to see default distance in between text lines, see the distance in between cell content and its border, and also see total height.
Below example shows how we can change that userbox and further specify parameters to bring down the overall height of the userbox to the recommended height of 45px, even with four text lines. Cell padding parameter "info-p" can also be set at "1pt 1pt 1pt 2pt", or "1pt 2pt" for better appearance, when there are 4 text lines.
{{userbox | border-c = #aaffaa | border-s = 1 | id = foo logo | id-c = #ffffee | id-lh = 1.1em | id-s = 14 | info = ''We have specified values to lessen the distance between text lines and padding space between cell content and its border.'' | info-c = #ffeeff | info-lh = 1.05em | info-p = 1pt | info-s = 8 }}	foo logoWe have specified values to lessen the distance between text lines and padding space between cell content and its border.
Below example is for advanced users, showing how we can specify other CSS properties,for example, "font-family", to change the font or "text-decoration" to add lines around the text. Below, on the right side are two userboxes: the top one is displayed without either parameters; and the bottom userbox is displayed by using the below code, with the help of the "info-op" field.
{{userbox | border-c = #afa | border-s = 2 | id = foo logo | id-c = #ffe | id-lh = 1.1em | id-s = 14 | info = foo bar | info-c = #fef | info-op = font-family: 'Courier New', monospace; text-decoration: wavy overline green; | info-s = 14 }}	foo logofoo bar   foo logofoo bar
