More formatting woes
-
Continuing the discussion from Nice Post vs Mediocre Poster:
backticked text
fenced text with blank line at end
more backticked text incorrectly formatted
more fenced text to force the incorrect formatting above.
Removing either
- the second fenced text or
- removing the blank line in the first fenced text
makes the second backticked text display correctly.

hu-uh.... well formatting is hard.....

Normal text. ``` Special text. ``` Normal text. ``` Special text. ``` Normal text. ``` Special text. ```
I have absolutely no idea what this will look like when I post it...

Yeah, apparently formatting is hard. Especially when the Preview window outright lies to you...

Take the raw of my post and paste it into the composer, compare the Preview with the actual result.
The most frustrating thing is that it actually posts correctly for a couple of seconds, before going wrong (I guess the client-formatted version gets replaced by the server-formatted one), so it gives the impression that Discourse actually hates your posts and wants you to feel bad about it.

I use two different rendering engines and it works consistently.
Well, you can "break" the JS implementation if you're not careful, but that's due to DOM, not the rendering engine itself.
