Template:Ancestry/doc

It is recommended to extend the chart to no more than 6 levels (63 nodes) to fit the content into prevalent desktop screen resolutions.

The template presents genealogical data in the form of a graphical ahnentafel ancestry tree (realized as an HTML table). The entries in the ahnentafel are given as numbered parameters to the template, and may contain arbitrary wikimarkup.

 * : CSS style attributes to be applied to the entire table.
 * : CSS style attributes to be applied to the boxes containing the entries.
 * : Thickness of the borders around the boxes in pixels (default: 2).
