similar to: PHP Markdown 1.0.1i & Extra 1.1.5

Until today, the only way I offered PHP Markdown and PHP Markdown Extra was with packaged zip files available on my website. It turns out, unsurprisingly, that some people would prefer a simpler path for keeping their copy of PHP Markdown up-to-date. So today I announce two additional ways of grabbing PHP Markdown and PHP Markdown Extra. The first one is a PEAR channel which can be used

This is basically a pre-announcement. I'll make the announcement more official by posting it on my blog when it goes out of beta. There's a new branch to PHP Markdown. It contains the two exact same parsers found in PHP Markdown and PHP Markdown Extra, but without all the cruft. In other words: is packaged to be used as a library, and only as a library. The two parsers classes are in the

Hello all. This is an update to PHP Markdown and PHP Markdown Extra correcting a couple of bugs that got reported since last release. I also decided to enable in this release shortcut-style reference links (as present in Markdown.pl 1.0.2 beta), as most implementations of Markdown accepts them by default. It's also because waiting for John to release officially version 1.0.2 as an

Time for an update to PHP Markdown and PHP Markdown Extra. <http://michelf.com/project/php-markdown/> This new version of PHP Markdown Extra adds support for "fenced" code blocks (which I was previously calling "flat"). Fenced code blocks overcome many limitations of Markdown's indented code blocks: they can can be put immediately following a list item, can

This is a bug-fix release for PHP Markdown and PHP Markdown Extra.

Hello all, I've began writing the parsing section of the spec, and I though I'd let you know about where I'm heading with all this. Basically, parsing is defined as three consecutive passes: parsing document elements, parsing block elements and parsing span elements. Each pass is going to contain a set of rules the parser should attempt to match while parsing the input. Rules

This update to PHP Markdown fix a bug that slipped in the WordPress interface with the last update. It also introduce a new "feature": you can now instruct the parser to ignore HTML tags and/or entities in the input. You can do this by instantiating yourself the parser and setting the `no_markup` or `no_entities` properties to true: $parser = new Markdown_Parser;

This is an Extra-only release for fixing an embarrassing bug with fenced code blocks. <http://michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/> Extra 1.2.1 (27 May 2008): * Fixed a problem where Markdown headers and horizontal rules were transformed into their HTML equivalent inside fenced code blocks. In other words, this: ~~~ # hello - - - ~~~ would generate a header and

I'm announcing today a new testsuite application for Markdown called MDTest. I've been using it as a replacement for John's Markdown Test for some time now I think it's ready for release. First, I want to say Markdown Test has been very useful in developing PHP Markdown. The testsuite covers many cases, however I still found the need to add other tests for PHP Markdown, to

It took much more time than I expected, and it is currently less complete than I have hoped, but I've finaly made a first draft of the Markdown Extra spec. You can find it at <http://michelf.com/specs/markdown-extra/ > Currently, the specification defines its goals and a document model for Markdown Extra. It lacks the most important part though: the parsing section, which

This is something that I've been asked for many times. So today I'm announcing that all future versions of PHP Markdown and PHP SmartyPants will be encapsulated in a parser class. This has two major benefits: 1. It should make extensions to the syntax easier to create and maintain as it is now possible to now extend the parser by replacing (overriding) only the relevant

I apologize for being off-topic, but I think there's more expertise on this list than I'll find elsewhere. I'm thinking about moving my blog from Movable Type 3.2 to WordPress. As a test, I've set up a local WP installation and imported my old posts--all of which are written in Markdown. They look awful, primarily because the blocks of source code in many of my posts are not being
