( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
you just need <p> for paragraphs and <code>...</code> for code

I'm replying to you because you're just the first one (from a search POV, top-to-bottom) to point out so, and it's fundamentally true: I would call it the zeroeth-order approximation to the Truth™ ;) Now, to be admittedly fussy and since nobody else seems to have mentioned them yet, I would add that before any other "cosmetic" tag would come PM-specific <readmore> and (to a lesser extent) <spoiler> ones which are sometimes recommended, to define the first-order approximation.

As for the level of strictness at the monastery, I don't have time enough to follow the subthread(s?) that this issue spawned, but as far as I'm concerned I close all tags: indeed I'm pretty much always writing xhtml nowadays, whenever I have to "write *html" that is - I feel more comfortable and psychologically at ease. And it's not tiresome for me in any way. You may check that by inspecting the xml source of my [by://|nodes], well at least since some years on...

In reply to Re^3: Wiki-Style syntax for posting by blazar
in thread Wiki-Style syntax for posting by Anonymous Monk

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
