similar to: A bug or an undocumented feature?

I just received a [bug report] for Python-Markdown complaining that colons are used in the ids of footnotes. For reference, we [output] the same format at PHP Markdown Extra. The general complaint is that the colon in the id attribute (`id="fnref:1"`) causes jquery to choke when referencing that id from javascript because jquery uses colons to indicate pseudo elements (as does CSS). As

I'm curious how people think the following *should* be interpreted: - one 2. two http://babelmark.bobtfish.net/?markdown=-++one%0D%0A2.+two%0D%0A%0D%0A As you can see, implementations split into three groups here: (a) treat as an unordered list Markdown.pl, Python markdown, MultiMarkdown, BlueCloth, MarkdownJ, Showdown (b) treat as an unordered list with an ordered

We recently received the following bug report for the python-markdown implementation: > The "&" are escaped in URLs. > > An example: > [Link](http://www.site.com/?param1=value1&param2=value1) > > Should output: > <a href="http://www.site.com/?param1=value1&param2=value1">Link</a> > > Currently outputs: > <a

Hi, I'm using the header id extension from markdown extra and in my perception it gets wrong when I use attributes on headers, for instance: >>> md = markdown.Markdown(['extra']) >>> md.convert('# My header {@class=red}') u'<h1 class="red" id="my_header_classred_1">My header </h1>' I would have expected:

Gentlefolk, I have been thinking on Markdown's lack of "proper" table support for a long while now. Here's where I have arrived... ## I Don't Like HTML Tables It is often argued that embedded HTML is the way to markdown rich tables. Unfortunately, this contradicts the higher markdown ideal that a raw markdown document (including tables!) should be good 1. Firstly for

Hello List, Firstly, I was very impressed when I tried markdown 2.0 recently. Fantastic work all! I have a query about the treatment of emphasis. I realise that the horse has bolted, and changes to currently supported functionality are unlikely to attract support. However, there does seem (at least in my tiny mind) to be a mis-match between the following stated goal and the present

Hello, I need to to slightly extend the markdown syntax. (place an image (img tag) in text which URL has not yet been determined). Therefore I want to define something like $[Alt text](img.jpg) which would be replaced by my pre-processor with  and then sent to markdown. Is there any special syntax that should be used for such 3rd party extensions? How would you do

Hi folks, thanks for the useful code! I've added some functionality to PHP Markdown Extra and PHP SmartyPants. Diffs attached. For PHP Markdown Extra: *A new config option, MARKDOWN_HEADER_BASE, which sets the largest header level that Markdown can generate and defaults to 1; useful if you use <h1> for site-wide elements and want Markdown-generated headers to start at

Hello, As I am using markdown to write documentation, I am often tempted to make links to terms in definition lists. Since this is not possible for now (at least in php markdown extra), I was wondering if this could be a common addition in major implementation supporting definition lists. the syntax would be term {#id} : definition This syntax tries to follows current convention and

Hi eveybody! I've got a suggestion to think about. Although i think that the drawbacks are bigher than the advantages im goong to tell you abou my idea: My idea is another syntax for e m p h a s i z e d words. It uses two spaces before and after the emphasized part and alternating space and letter in between, just like in the sentence before. Pros: ? no symbol needed ? granny compatible

I'm using Markdown in an app and would like to provide support for including a table of contents. Any suggestions for a syntax? Has anyone done this before? My first thoughts are: 1. Have a special header item (using markdown extra's header syntax), e.g. generate-contents: yes 2. Have a special xml tag with optional alternative text inside, e.g. <contents> 1. First thingy 2.

Hi John, there?s a bug in Markdown.pl: [foo*bar](#) [baz*quux](#) This expands to the following: <p><a href="#">foo<em>bar</a> <a href="#">baz</em>quux</a></p> Those `*` should either be disregarded or the tags should nest correctly: 1. <p><a href="#">foo*bar</a> <a

Hello, Given the following text: under a license from AT&T; however, others were based on BSD instead. Daring Fireball's Markdown Dingus produces: <p>under a license from AT&T; however, others were based on BSD instead.</p> Note how the '&' is not escaped to '&amp;'. Bug? Feature? Thanks in advance.

I was wondering if there is a single text file that contains all the markup in a way that one can visually check to see if a markdown script is succeeding. I know there's a Perl test suite, but I'm looking for just one source file. Thanks. -- Ben Wilson " Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur"

Text: > number 1 > > letter B > last one Markdown output: <blockquote> <p>number 1</p> <p>letter B</p> <p>last one</p> </blockquote> Is this the intended behavior? I think there should be two separate block quote tags like this: <blockquote> <p>number 1</p> <p>letter B</p>

Hello all, I'm announcing python-markdown2 -- another Python implementation of Markdown. (MIT license.) http://code.google.com/p/python-markdown2/ It should be a drop-in replacement for [markdown.py](http://www.freewisdom.org/projects/python-markdown/). It fixes some issues that I ran into with markdown.py [^1]. I believe that it is faster than markdown.py [^2] and on par or a little
