Subject: [ANN] PHP Markdown Extra 1.1b3
Message-ID: <95311B78-FD11-4F3A-9DBA-98C1295A4D86@michelf.com>

The last missing piece for the footnote implementation in PHP  
Markdown Extra is the custom class and title attributes for footnote  
links and backlinks I said I'd add in the announcement of 1.1b1. So  
this new version adds four configurable settings to that effect.  
Within the attributes, any occurrence of `%%` will be replaced by the  
current footnote number. For instance, you could use:

     define( 'MARKDOWN_FN_LINK_TITLE', "Go to footnote %%." );

Nothing else has changed in this version. It can be downloaded here:

Hi,

is there any way how to create destination anchors in Markdown?

somethink what would produce html:

<A href="#section1">Introduction</A><BR>
<A href="#section2">Some background</A><BR>
...

<H2><A name="section1">Introduction</A></H2>
...section 1...
<H2><A name="section2">Some background</A></H2>
...


thanks,
David

php-driven, markdown-aware, open source wiki/cms that has some degree

installable (or buildable) on OS X and has an easy installer for

Considering those requirements, I would strongly recommend PMWiki.org.
I know a markdown extension exists for it, although last I knew it was
incomplete, but that was some time ago.

I am using PMWiki with version 1.1 of the Markdown extension, and  
it?s not ideal.

It doesn?t do block quotes, it doesn?t do <urls>, and there is  
probably also a few more things it is missing. Plus I have to embed  
the markdown in (:markdown:) ? (:markdownend:), but you can set it so  
that the extension runs on all pages, then you don?t need that, but  
you lose WikiWord links.

There is a 1.2, but I tried installing it, and it did not work for  
me. The change log though did not appear to have done much about the  
above -- it is based on the PHP Markdown, so I am not sure why it  
does not support the full markdown syntax.

Thanks to Wayne and Allan.

I already had a play with PMWiki. It would do at a push, but I was  
not impressed and I haven't even tried the Markdown extension yet and  
after reading Allan's comments, I'm not sure I want to. OTOH, it did  
pass the "easy install on Windows" test. I gave our Win SysAdmin the  
url and he got it up and working w/o much trouble !

Any other ideas ?

mark.

Drupal can do pretty much all of this with the right modules.   
Version 5, recently in beta, also has an installer, although it's  
pretty easy to install in the 4.7 stable branch.

http://www.drupal.org/
http://www.drupal.org/project/Modules

Here's the Markdown/Smartypants module:
http://drupal.org/project/marksmarty

Access control is pretty easy with this one:

Thanks Joe,

I hadn't looked at Drupal in a long while. This looks interesting.

It depends on what you want to do with it, I personally use both 
pmwiki (the best wiki I've played with) and drupal but for 
different things. The support for markdown in pmwiki is kind of 
limited but used in a "suitable way" it works fine (although 
linking etc is best done using the pmwiki markup language). 
Markdown in drupal works just fine ... but if you want linking 
etc between articles, revision handling etc then pmwiki is a 
better choice.

thanks Jan Erik,

After an initial play Drupal looks like it might suit better than  
PmWiki. I think I'll set it up and see how things pan out.

Simple, reliable, complete Markdown support is essential.

You'll see a `markdown.php` in the MarkSmarty module.  You can
safely overwrite it with PHP-Markdown Extra, if you like.  Etc.
