Re: [Doxygen-users] A hash character inside a markdown table

Aha!  I don’t know why I didn’t think to try that.  That works correctly.

Thanks!

Brian,
Did you try to do the escaping by means of a backslash ?

Hi,

I’m trying to display a hash inside a string inside a markdown table.  Here is the source:

-0.5   | P#B2      | -2<sup>-1</sup>

This results in the following HTML for the center column:
<td>P::B2 </td>

If I try HTML entity such as this:

-0.5   | P&#35;B2      | -2<sup>-1</sup>  <!-- Markdown gobbles the # character, so use HTML entity; actual format string is P#B2 -->

Then the entity ends up escaped in the HTML:
<td>P&amp;#35;B2 </td>

I tried removing the inline HTML comment to make sure it wasn’t causing the problem, and it made no difference.

Why is the ampersand getting escaped?  How do I prevent it, or otherwise stop markdown from parsing the # character?

Thanks,
