: Text for a navbox's header and footer rows, respectively.
; <code>Header ''N''</code> (recommended) and <code>Data ''N''</code> (recommended)

: Denotes what type the navbox is. <code>Normal</code> is a normal or top-level navbox; <code>Nested</code> denotes a nested navbox, with the same options as the top-level navbox; <code>Subheader</code> denotes a navbox whose use is to serve as subcategories (sub-rows) for one row.
; <code>name</code> (optional)
