Bug in s9y-markup

Post by bpkri »

It seems in certain cases the s9y-markup will not work correctly.

For example if I have

Code: Select all

blah blah *blah* blah blah
That's allright. The star-enclosed "blah" gets bolded. But:

Code: Select all

blah blah *blah*. 
Is not allright. Here the last "blah" will not become bold, but it will stay surrounded by *.

I have also noticed that using ^blubb^ directly and alone under an image doesn't seem to work. Maybe the regular expressions are not 100% okay in these cases.

That's right, it is too hard to filter out many more occasions. Instead I suggest to use BBCode, this has better markup rules. The s9y markup is only very simple, mostly because of performance reasons...
