similar to: Use of Markdown Extra in a forum

Hi All. I've just started using Markdown for my blog. So far it seems quite nice, but the one issue I've run into is a lack of "native" support for footnotes. I think that Daring Fireball's footnote style makes a lot of sense, and that's what I intend to use. However, it is a bit cumbersome to implement that style from within Markdown. I notice that the PHP

My fork of Michel Fortin's PHP Markdown Extra has been updated to include support for MathJax as well as jsMath. Both of these are JavaScript libraries for using LaTeX syntax, e.g., \(E = mc^2\), to include high quality, scalable equations (not just bitmapped images of equations) in your HTML pages. Links to more information: * A [description of PHP Markdown Extra Math][1], along with some

Hey everyone. I really stuck on testing a nested controller. I''m trying to make a request using get and afterwards checking the response by response.should ... My routes.rb looks like this: map.resources :writers do |writers| writers.resources :notes end In my notes_controller_spec.rb def do_get writer_id = 1 note_id = 1 get note_path(writer_id, note_id) end it "should

Hi there, I''ve tried to add a m:n mapping table using the migration mechanism. ruby script\generate migration add_categories_notes_mapping and filled the migration file with: class AddNotesCategoriesMapping < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :categories_notes do |t| t.column :category_id, :integer, :null=>false t.column :note_id, :integer,

Hi, I''m new to Rails. Have read the Agile book. Working on new app, its going well. Now, I am at a crossroads. I need to choose a bbs for my site The significance for rails development is that I want to have single sign on between both my Rails app and my forum. I was just about to work on integrating the Rails SaltedLoginGenerator into my rails app when I read this post

While we're talking about new syntax, I thought that I'd throw out an idea I had to extend the footnote syntax as it currently exists in PHP Markdown Extra. I'm not sure that it's the best way to solve this particular problem, but I figured I'd throw it out there to get any comments on it. It relates to the problem of specifying a document's GUID. A few months back,

Michael Grave just posted a question about surround conferences. http://www.facebook.com/notes.php?id=564633430#/note.php?note_id=5009726 3908&id=564633430&index=0 I didn't see it posted on the ast-list, what do you think? Does something like this have potential? I'd love to listen in on one of these calls to see how it actually sounds if someone builds a trial

Hi All, Probably this has been asked numerous times, I apologize already! Can somebody point me to a good tutorial on how Rails works with relations? I know about database design and normalization, I also know about programming in general (and OOP for that matter). Only thing I can say is that I''m following the "Four days on Rails" tutorial by John McCreesh. He writes

This is a bug-fix release for PHP Markdown and PHP Markdown Extra. It's almost identical to version 1.0.2b8, minus the new features introduced in the 1.0.2 betas (shortcut links, markdown attribute support for plain PHP Markdown), plus a few minor improvements. You can download PHP Markdown & Extra from the project page: <http://www.michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/> Here

Bug fixes for PHP Markdown & Extra, available as beta version for now. You can download them from these URLs. <http://www.michelf.com/docs/projets/php-markdown-1.0.2b8.zip> <http://www.michelf.com/docs/projets/php-markdown-extra-1.1.3b1.zip> One noticeable change in these releases is that PHP Markdown now outputs numeric character references for escaped characters (like

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

Hello to all! This is the revised 2005 proposal for meta-data, much more in detail: http://maruku.rubyforge.org/proposal.md http://maruku.rubyforge.org/proposal.html http://maruku.rubyforge.org/proposal.pdf I wait for comments. At the end of the document, there are some open issues. And I need a regexp wizard to look over the "grammar" section. Cheers, -- Andrea Censi

I am glad to see support for footnotes working its way into other implementations of Markdown! However, I have a couple of issues. Issue # 1. There appears to be a bug in the footnote parser that causes material following the footnote to be included as part of the footnote. For example: < Example Section > ## Metadata ## First, take a look at the overall structure of the document.

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

FYI, There was an interest from a few people to create a formalization of Markdown as it is currently implemented. A W3C Community Group has been created for moving forward and exploring the idea and create a spec if necessary. A W3C Community Group [1] is a platform for discussing, publishing about a topic. You just need a free public W3C account [2] The community markdown group [3] has

Estimados, A todos quienes estan insterados y estan en Stgo de Chile les tengo una muy buena noticia. Desde hace ya algunas semanas, nos hemos sentado a la mesa con Alex (Epidemiologo) a discutir la necesidad de desarrollar un curso de R para principiantes. No solo porque es necesario unirse en torno a un projecto como es el R, sino que es una oportunidad para muchos cientificos (como

I've been using the John Fraser's Showdown JavaScript port of Markdown to do real-time previews in-browser. But I also would like to take advantage of some of the extensions in Michel Fortin's PHP Markdown Extra. Has anyone already tried to implement Markdown Extra in JavaScript? Thanks, Keith

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm redesigning my site and considering moving from Movable Type to WP, but many of my entries are in Markdown. I really, really like Markdown and SmartyPants. I've not used Textile much, but Markdown feels more natural to me; also, I love SmartyPants because I'm a stickler for curly quotes. I understand there's a Markdown
