Module:Succession table monarch

Module documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Implements Template:Succession table monarch

Usage

Can be called from a page like: {{#invoke:Succession table monarch|fromFrame}}

or via the {{Succession table monarch}} template.

Also, the functions fromArray and fromArgs can be called from another module like so:

• fromArray receives the full list of arguments of the template
• fromArgs receives an array where each element is a table which contains the data of one monarch, each with the properties with the numbers removed (e.g. name instead of name1, image instead of image1
