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. Kind regards, PA.

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

Python-markdown currently replaces all straight quotes (`"`) with the html entity (`&quot;`). Someone recently complained about this in a [bug report][]. As it turns out the quote was the symptom that brought the real problem to light[^1]. In any event, the reporter pointed out that markdown.pl does not replace straight quotes with the html entity. I know John Gruber has mentioned before

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

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 I hope I haven't missed anything which answers this question on the syntax page, but what is the correct behaviour of the following markdown random text heading == random text # heading random text + list 1 (note there is not space before the '+') The following page treats the headings differently to the start of the list http://old-wp.slekx.com/the-markdown-tutorial/ That

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

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:

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

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"

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, I read David Wheeler's table proposal[1] for Markdown and very much agree with his conclusion and PostgreSQL-inspired proposed format. I also read the mailing list archives for 2009 but did not find any clear concesus on whether DW's format was officially accepted (I hope it is soon!). However, I want to ask: has anyone considered taking these simple ASCII table drawings to the

Howdy, Quick question: Since list items with multiple paragraphs need to be indented four spaces, and code blocks are also indented four spaces, is there any way to disambiguate a list followed by a code block? Example: * This is a list item. * And so is this. Is this a second paragraph in the second list item, or a code block? It looks like Markdown.pl and discount

Hello, I've published a Ruby gem that lets you create slide shows and author slides in plain text using a wiki-style markup language that's easy-to-write and easy-to-read. Yes, that's Markdown. (Textile is supported too ;-) You can find two samples online in Markdown: o http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/svn/samples/rest.text o

I'm using the PHP port of Markdown, but I noticed the same effect on your dingus <http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/dingus> The problem I'm seeing is when I have an bulleted list and the last item of the list contains a block quote. The blockquote does not terminate correctly, and adding another blockquote after the list ends up extending the original blockquote.

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
