The tag_name in the general format above is case sensitive, so please type the tag name exactly as shown in the web tag columns in the tables on the [Webtags|web tags page]].
The tag_name in the general format above is case sensitive, so please type the tag name exactly as shown in the web tag columns in the tables on the [Webtags|web tags page]].


The optional input parameters always use lower case, so please type them exactly as shown in the sections dealing with input parameters on that page.
Any '''input selection parameters''' always use lower case, so please type them exactly as shown in the sections dealing with input parameters on that page.


The optional output parameters are case insensitive when used in Cumulus 1. But for Cumulus 2 and later, so this includes MX, the output parameters are case sensitive and also dependent on what other output formatters are being used if any, so please read the sections on output parameters and study the examples in the tables carefully.
Where '''output formatting parameters''' are used, they are ''case insensitive'' for processing by Delphi parser in legacy Cumulus 1. But '''for MX''', all output parameters are ''case sensitive'', '''and''' also ''dependent on what other output formatters are being used'' if any, so please read the sections on output parameters and study the examples in the tables carefully.
