[Python-markdown-discuss] mdx_tables bug

[glin <gl...@se...>]

Hi,

on your wiki you have extension mdx_tables 
(http://www.freewisdom.org/projects/python-markdown/mdx_tables).

When I use some inline mark (like *something*, link etc.) in table cell, 
the cell content renders in reverse order. And I can use only one inline 
mark (others are not taken in account).

IMHO this extension shouldn't use _handleInline method, but 
_handleInlineWrapper2. I went through the source code of markdown and it 
appears, that _handleInline is only some 'private' function used by 
_handleInlineWrapper2 - so _handleInline applies only one pattern and 
returns chunks in reverse order, which is completely wrong and will do 
mess when you use any inline pattern in table.

So I think, that you should replace:

			for n in self.md._handleInline(t):
				if(type(n) == unicode):
					td.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(n))
				else:
					td.appendChild(n)

with:

			for item in self.md._handleInlineWrapper2(t) :
				td.appendChild(item)

I don't have permission to wiki so I cannot write it there, so I'm 
sending this email to mailinglist.
