<p>Added property</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>The datatype &#039;&#039;&#039;string&#039;&#039;&#039; is used for simple words and similar character sequences. It has the following restrictions:<br /> <br /> * no &quot;:=&quot; (even inside nowiki tags it gives problems),<br /> * not longer than 255 characters. (If you need longer strings, use [[Type:Text]].)<br /> <br /> You can use &#039;&#039;some&#039;&#039; wiki markup inside a string property such as runs of &#039; for bold and italic, and the markup will change the appearance of the string.<br /> You &#039;&#039;cannot&#039;&#039; embed semantic annotations inside a string property.<br /> <br /> == Enumerations ==<br /> You can use the special property [[Property:Allows value|Allows value]]<br /> to restrict a property to a particular set of values.<br /> For example you could limit &quot;Status&quot; to certain states.<br /> <br /> The old Type:Enumeration from SMW versions prior to 1.0 is an alias for [[Type:String]] since it has the same behavior.</div>
