==Cite.php method==
This page provides a very simple explanation of how to use the Cite.php method for creating reference indicators and reference lists.
===Multiple insertion of the same reference===
On the Edit page, this is placed at the first insertion point of citation:
:'''<nowiki><ref name="Perry">Perry's Handbook, Sixth Edition, McGraw-Hill Co., 1984.</ref></nowiki>'''
This is placed at the second insertion point of citation:
:'''<nowiki><ref name="Perry"/></nowiki>'''
This is placed at the third insertion point of citation:
:'''<nowiki><ref name="Perry"/></nowiki>''' ... and so forth for further insertion points
===Single insertion of a reference===
For the single insertion of a reference, the "name" parameter is not needed. On the Edit page, this is placed at the insertion point of citation:
:'''<nowiki><ref>Excel For Dummies, First Edition, Hungry Minds, Inc., 3.</ref></nowiki>'''
===What is produced at the points of insertion===
These are what is produced and note that the reference numbers in blue are automatically generated. Clicking on any one of the reference numbers causes the screen display to scroll down to that reference number in the Reference List section:
:First<ref name="Perry">Perry's Handbook, Sixth Edition, McGraw-Hill Co., 1984.</ref> text word referenced to Perry's Handbook
:Second<ref name="Perry"/> text word referenced to Perry's Handbook
:Third<ref name="Perry"/> text word referenced to Perry's Handbook
:The only<ref>Excel For Dummies, First Edition, Hungry Minds, Inc., 1980.</ref> text word referenced to the Excel book.
===Producing the reference or footnote list===
On the Edit page, this is placed in the References or the Footnotes section:
::'''<nowiki><references/></nowiki>'''
This is what it produces and note that the list numbers are automatically generated:
<references/>
=== Notes on the Cite.php method ===
* Clicking on the blue superscript <font color=blue>1.0</font> causes the screen display to scroll back up to the point where the first reference to Perry's Handbook was inserted. Clicking on the blue superscript <font color=blue>1.1</font> causes the screen display to scroll back up to the point where the second reference to Perry's Handbook was inserted. Clicking on the blue superscript <font color=blue>1.2</font> causes the screen display to scroll back up to the point where the third reference to Perry's Handbook was inserted ... and so forth.
* Clicking on any caret (<font color=blue>↑</font>) that has no associated superscripts cause the screen display to scroll back up to the point where that single-use references was inserted.
