What would I need to edit at DynamicTextFormattingHelp to make it work under Portland? Where in the file does it go?

I basically don't like this solution, actually. I just want one markup method. Preferably one that is a superset, to the extent reasonable.

For instance, both DL style tables, and old markup style tables. Heck, even standard HTML tables, too. 

As for new lines, why can't a new line be a new line (under most conditions)? 

Anyhow, lots of thoughts, but mostly just a vague wish that these things didn't take so much time..., or, moreover, that I was more sophisticated about PHP, as I honestly don't know where to put that DynamicTextFormattingHelp. "Oh, we could just do such-and-such" always feels a little more daunting to me than to many of you on this list. 

Also, tonight I got a little jealous looking at some other wikis. Colors to indicate whether the page is editable:
http://www.piclab.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Working_With_Lee's_Wiki
Cool hierarchical structure (a good thing?)
http://thinktank.rootnode.com/Wiki/FrontPage

I mostly point out the piclab.com site, because I like the way he did the documentation there. I was thinking about something along those lines. (see the table)

I'm sticking with phpwiki. Only so much time in the world. But I do want to get to one markup method...

I love wikis.... wikis are wonderful... (really!)

Best,

Margie
