====== Adding clever things to your pages ======


===== Polls =====

You can add polls to pages simply add:

    <poll This is a poll>
       This is a poll question.
       * do you think this is a good thing?
       * or do you think it is a bad thing?
       * or do you just like sitting on fences?
     </poll>


<poll This is a poll>
This is a poll question.
 * do you think this is a good thing?
 * or do you think it is a bad thing?
 * or do you just like sitting on fences?
</poll>




===== BibTex =====

Bibtex is a format for storing bibliographic information, most reference managers use it, as does CiteULike.  The process of managing citations (specific to the AT field) is [[evidencebase:evidence_base|documented on this site]].

To add a bibtex citation is simple - just copy the syntax below:

  <bibtex>
  Copied bibtex script (e.g. from the bottom of a CiteULike page)
  </bibtex>

e.g.
  <bibtex>
  @book{citeulike:173079,
	address = {Mahwah, NJ, USA},
	author = {Card, Stuart  K.  and Newell, Allen   and Moran, Thomas  P. },
	citeulike-article-id = {173079},
	isbn = {0898592437},
	keywords = {hci},
	priority = {2},
	publisher = {Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Inc.},
	title = {The Psychology of Human-Computer Interaction},
	url = {http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=578027},
	year = {1983}
  }
  </bibtex>

Produces:

<bibtex>
@book{citeulike:173079,
	address = {Mahwah, NJ, USA},
	author = {Card, Stuart  K.  and Newell, Allen   and Moran, Thomas  P. },
	citeulike-article-id = {173079},
	isbn = {0898592437},
	keywords = {hci},
	priority = {2},

	year = {1983}
}
</bibtex>


===== MindMaps =====

[[http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page|Freemind]] mindmaps can be placed inside pages, cool eh!

Start editing a page, upload the file by choosing the 'Add images and other files' option in the toolbar, then follow the syntax below:

  //%%#freemind?width=300&javalink=false(namespace:mindmap.mm)#%%//

You can get the link (namespace:mindmap.mm bit) by clicking on the mindmap in the upload dialog box.... this inserts a link into your page.

  e.g: //%%#freemind?width=300&javalink=false(wiki:assistech_website.mm)#%%//

Produces: 

#freemind?width=300&javalink=false(wiki:assistech_website.mm)#
