Markdown within block-level elements

Fletcher, how does MMD treat HTML elements? Does it just ignore the tags (possibly breaking the HTML) or does it parse the content of each element  separately after identifying it as an element, eg. through recursion?

If it is the latter, then calling the function with a markdown=on/off/all shouldn't be too complicated I guess.

Head, code and pre could (instead of adding the complicated exclusion tag thing) just be excluded by default. Or instead have markdown="all" and markdown="intelligent" where the latter excludes the elements that usually don't make sense. But even this is only needed for convenience! Demanding the user to add a markdown=0 tag to the elements she wants to exclude should normally suffice.

Regards, jakov
