A few issues with the sidebar.
I'm trying to get alt text on links that I place in the navigation menu but it is not
apparent how to do this. Alt text exists for the links that come by default in the
navigation menu, such as the "Current events" page, but if I want to place a
link to one of my pages with alttext, I don't see how I can do that. Does anyone know
the trick if one exists?
Also, when I place a link to a page called "My Page" in Mediawiki:Sidebar:
**My Page|mypage
what appears in the navigation menu is:
Mypage $1
which works to take me to the "My Page" page, but where does that $1 come
from?
If I add a few spaces after
**My Page|mypage
The $1 does not show.
I'm guessing it's a bug. I'm using the Vector skin.
