Including WP:Route diagram template in map parameter
There are reports that route map using WP:Route diagram template included in the infobox "breaks apart" in browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 like the left one. This issue doesn't exist under browser like IE8, Firefox or Opera by their default font and margin preferences.
| breaking rows | fixed | ||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
| ||||||||||||
Use template {{infobox rdt}} if break occurs on every row:
map = {{Infobox rdt|ROUTE DIAGRAM TEMPLATE NAME}}
If some of the row of route map made with WP:ROUTE set (not entirely) breaks apart, possibly the infobox width is too short and forcing some of the text description within the route diagram template to return. Increase the box_width parameter, or putting auto will solve this problem.
